STERLING CRAFTSMANSHIP
Chic sculptural vases are a staple in minimalist interiors. Prolific Japanese design studio Nendo has collaborated with Danish silverware brand Georg Jensen to produce a series of stylish vases named Mizuki.
Each forged from a single sheet of .925 sterling silver, the three vessels feature a deep central pool and a shallow wider spout on which you can lay or float the flowers. One set of vases requires no less than 400 hours to craft. Add this one to your wishlist!
Georg Jensen Mizuki vases will be retailed at www.georgjensen.com in November. Price upon request.

INSTANT GRATIFICATION
The TT in Korean appliances brand Wells’ TT UV+ Water Purifier stands for True Tankless, which translates to a sleek, countertop-friendly design that requires no hidden tank at the base of the installation.
This also translates to lower energy consumption and eliminates potential contamination that can happen in external tanks. Did we mention that it has a nine-step purification system and cools water up to seven times the average water purifier? Talk about instant gratification.
Wells TT UV+ is available in white and rose gold and retails from $2,180 at Tangs and other authorised retailers. Visit www.wellssingapore.com for more information.
DYSON DOES IT
The world’s sexiest cordless vacuum cleaner brand just got even more attractive with its latest offering for discerning homeowners.
The Dyson V12 Detect Slim features a laser dust detection cleaning head that reveals dust invisible to the eye, a dust sensing function that shows the size and number of microscopic dust particles being sucked up, and a new anti-tangle conical brush bar.
We especially love that the operation switch has been changed from a trigger to a simple red button too.
The Dyson V12 Detect Slim retails from $899, and is available at www.dyson.com.sg and Dyson Demo stores at Capitol Singapore and Westgate.
