Top 5 Handcrafted Gifts
1) Alembic Copper Still
Home distilling is easy—and attractive—with this striking copper and brass still. Handcrafted with care by artisans in India for fair wages, the design is fashioned after the ancient alembic still. While not in use making batches of brandy, whiskey, and other spirits (you can even use it to make essential oils!), it serves as a striking piece of home décor.
