The Sophisticate
Living a life of sophistication is not always about being the richest or having the most elegant, expensive things, but surrounding oneself with luxury can certainly bring out the glamour in life. This holiday season, share that feeling, experience, and culture with others. Browsing this collection, you may find perfect gifts for those on your list who delight in intellectual pleasures or traveling the world—or perhaps you’ll find a treat for yourself. Enjoy the finer things!
