If you can handle a few rounds of chess, we’re guessing you can string a sentence together. It’s not like Hungry Hungry Hippos where you’re just smashing your fist down like Cro-Magnon Man. It takes some smarts, which is why we figure this Typographic Chess Set is perfect for the design-loving intellectual. Sculpted in the vein of the Champion Gothic typeface, the pieces for this set are laser-cut acrylic letters in place of the standard pieces. The limited edition set (only 50 were made so far) is perfect for any font buff who happens to enjoy pulling off elaborate openings or at least likes to pretend he does.

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.
