This small wooden set of drawers, based on the classic library card catalog, holds a dozen treasures that the recipient will use throughout the year. Open one drawer on each of the twelve days before Christmas to find:

• a fifty-year calendar paperweight
• a small enameled catch-all decorated with a marbleized endpaper design
• a French market bag (perfect for toting books)
• booklover’s cocktail napkins
• our wildly popular tea towel illustrated with collective nouns
• a pair of luxury socks, designed in collaboration with The Shakespeare’s Globe Trust
• a vial of loose whole-leaf tea from Palais des Thés
• a reading rubber duckie
• a New York Review of Books hardcover pocket notebook
• a premium brass pencil sharpener, made by the oldest sharpening company in Germany
• a box of fifty stylish gold paper clips
• a box of thirty brass book darts, the book-lover’s perfect memory aid.

In addition to these twelve gifts, the beautiful card catalog organizer can be used long after the holidays to organize office supplies, spices, jewelry, or any small items—the perfect way to start the New Year. 

While so many advent calendars and their contents are consumed or discarded after Christmas day, these gifts will be used for years—including the wooden card catalog box they arrive in. This is a gift to wow any reader nostalgic for days spent searching the stacks for just the right title.
