 Branch: Where Conservation & Luxury Meet Luxury Shopping: San-Francisco-based e-tailer, Branch, strongly believes that while products should be manufactured in the most environmentally responsible way possible, there is no reason to sacrifice style in the name of being "green." Branch offers an extensive line of furniture, housewares, garden accessories and gifts for men, women and children, all guaranteed to be as eco-friendly as they are exquisitely made.
Futuristic Coffee and Side Paper Tables by Brooklyn artist Matt Gagnon are made-to-order from 100% post-consumer recycled paperboard and finished with linseed oil. These chic tables have built-in slots and openings to hold reading materials and stimulate visual interest. The Knit Chair, designed by Emiliano Godoy, comes in a choice of FSC-certified beech or white oak panels, held together by cotton rope. This chair won the Bronze Leaf at the 2005 International Furniture Design Fair in Asahikawa, Japan.
The Rocks Ice Bucket and Glasses are manufactured from recycled glass in an electric furnace powered by wind energy. They are fashioned to look like giant ice cubes, making them fully functional conversation pieces. From the same manufacturer is the Sleeping Light, shaped like a bird and just the right size for a bedside table.
Adorable, handmade stuffed animals and hand puppets, such as the Knit Octopus and Cuddly Lamb, make wonderful all-occasion gifts sure to melt the hearts of children and adults alike. The octopus is hand-knit in rural Kenya from natural wool yarn, while the lamb hails from Germany and is made from 100% organic cotton, with a filling of pure lamb's wool.
Branch's full product line and gift registry are available at their Web site.
