The Summer Gift Pack from Asuwere offers a taste of the brand’s membership.

The top features a drop shoulder and wrap front with an inside tie and external button. The shorts feature a gently elasticated waistband, and the whole set has been pre-washed for extra comfort.
Apple HomePod mini
For such a small speaker, the HomePod mini delivers rich 360º sound. Audio is crisp yet balanced, and multiple HomePods can be paired for an even more immersive experience. The speaker also works seamlessly with Siri and other Apple devices and services such as Apple TV.
MENU Bottle Grinders
Designed by Norm Architects, the MENU Bottle Grinders excel in both form and function and are understatedly elegant. The mechanism is located at the top of the grinder to reduce mess, and the ceramic or brushed metal body is tactile and playful.

New Works Kizu Table Lamp
The Kizu Table Lamp’s sculptural design is striking; the large acrylic bowl appears to delicately balance on the rounded column. The use of marble keeps the piece grounded and adds a satisfying sense of weight, while the rounded forms have a soothing effect.
