Cool finds of the Week

LEAF Olive Oil Dish from Lekker - $18.00 - When filled with olive oil, you can see a series of concentric rings of greens in descending tones due to the depth of the oil in the dish. The item is currently out of stock, but you can pre-order. (Turkish readers - Taris also sells a different version of this dish. Find it here.)
