Sakura Cray-pas.

These wonderful oil pastels never fail to call in the muse. Who wouldn’t be inspired by this alluring palette of 20 richly saturated colors? The charming packaging is an invitation to let loose and play with the possibilities, as these will draw on paper, plastic, stone, wood, and styrofoam. We import them from Japan in a cardboard case with an elastic band that keeps it closed.

The Onigiri Mechanical Pencil.

Inspired by Japanese Onigiri rice balls, designer Before Breakfast spent four years perfecting this industrious, triangular pencil made from raw aluminum. Its rounded edges offer comfort and prevent rolling, while the unsealed aluminum develops a natural patina over time. Designed for simplicity and portability, this gorgeous mechanical pencil reflects the brand’s belief in thoughtful design and endless creative possibility. (When researching this list, I got this one for myself).
