candles and incense

Some people are of the opinion that a candle is not the best gift choice. But what if it smells like Frank Lloyd Wright's house? YIELD has put together a collection of candles and incense sticks inspired by 20th century architecture.

urban notebook

Notebooks, it is known. Preferably one that you can take with you everywhere and be able to put your ideas on paper at any time. And if, on top of that, the cover (in the trendy color of the coming year - Classic Blue) is decorated with an illustration depicting your favorite city, it's the perfect gift!

books

In our opinion, books are one of the best gift choices. To those who would like to gift someone the Polish edition of Reinier de Graaf 's bestselling book "Four Walls and a Roof. The complex nature of a simple profession," we remind you that the book's premiere and a meeting with the author will be held tomorrow at the Ethnographic Museum in Warsaw. Maybe you will even be able to get an autograph?
