Things to Covet – October 2025

Here are some unique pieces and home accessories that can add a refined touch to your home

1. Wave by Alexa Lixfeld

Caspaiou curates unique styling items and accessories from Europe, tailored for contemporary luxury interiors. Each piece is chosen to bring subtle character and refinement to your home. The glass sculptures are created by Alexa Lixfeld, who designs unique centrepieces and sculptures for high-end interiors. With her distinct and sensitive approach, Lixfeld merges contemporary design with the finest European glassmaking traditions to create unique objects, limited series and bespoke installations. Each piece is masterfully crafted – mouth-blown, freehand-shaped and sculpted. The use of traditional techniques ensures that every object is truly one of a kind.

2. Dodge Murano Glass Vase By Aina Kari

Ingrained in mouth-blown opaline Murano glass and presented in drip-like shapes, creating a sense of interest and intrigue.

3. Laser Blade by iGuzzini 

Laser Blade has revolutionised the concept of downlighting, liberating light without revealing the source. With its minimalist design and outstanding performance, it has become an icon in professional lighting, combining aesthetics and functionality. Its success lies in the miniaturised Optibeam optic, offering high levels of visual comfort and a perfectly defined circular light beam, free from chromatic imperfections.

4. Riesling Bar Cabinet Technical Shagreen Fabric By Armani Casa

Marked by a large storage unit that lies on a thin linear structure in smoked gold, the Riesling Bar features doors in technical shagreen fabric. The backs of the doors are equipped with short shelves conceived to store glassware.

5. Buccellati’s Sea Collection

Sea jewels with mysterious refined shapes and endless appeal add a striking style to this collection, inspired by shells – eternal symbols of prosperity, renewal and fertility. The magnificent centrepieces, elegant vide-poches and precious placeholders all are characterised by exquisite craft and absolute perfection in every single detail – a result obtained thanks to a dedication to long-standing tradition and the patient and meticulous work of passionate silversmiths.

6. Art Deco Table Lamp By Il Paralume Marina

Part of the Art Deco collection, inspired by the geometric rigor and bold silhouettes of home decor from the 1930s and ‘40s, this metal table lamp features a frame with striking gold finish and is handmade by skilful craftsmen. The round base supports a V-shaped frame where the bulb is inserted, covered above by a curved, metallic structure that projects the light downward. Elegant and sophisticated, this piece can be displayed alone or combined with other pieces from the same series.

7. Mao Hand Waved Pouf By Tonucci Collection

Chic and intricate, this pouf draws inspiration from the iconic cross-stitch patterns seen in luxury fashion, crafted from natural leather and handwoven with care. Designed by Viola Tonucci, it received an honourable mention at the 2011 Young & Design contest in Milan, Italy. The leather is folded with precision, echoing the art of Origami.
