A desk. It’s the foundation upon which you write your novel, finish your manifesto, design your masterpiece, or, on a more mundane, daily level, watch internet videos of cats doing retarded things. Regardless, a desk is where your ideas spring forth, and you shouldn’t give short shrift when buying one. Crate and Barrel’s Hendrix desk is a mid-century modern winner. Made from antique reclaimed wood and walnut accents, it’s strikingly handsome. The steel legs and solid stance give it a masculine look and feel, and the four drawers with wrought iron handles have a pleasant heft and roll to them. Perfect for storing your cigars, handgun, secret dossiers, bottle of whiskey, and maybe that puppy calendar your niece gave you last Christmas.

Huckberry’s Essential Holiday Gift Guide
Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
