Cover Story

The Ultimate Gift Catalogue

Here, our annual gift guide: packed with more than 500 presents, ranging in price from $0 all the way up to insanity and including ideas for everyone on your list, from Dad to dog. But amid all the gorgeous practicality, we couldn’t help including an occasional absurdity � so that before we knew it, we were suggesting Greek islands and ambassadorships and cemetery plots (which are pretty fun to read about anyway).
