Pop open a Coedo Japanese beer at the Nolita store Creatures of Comfort this Saturday to toast the arrival of a kindred spirit: Tokyo design store Playmountain. The shop-in-a-shop will offer a slew of pretty and practical giftables by Japanese artisans, including pampas-grass brooms ($20), apple-shaped ceramic sugar bowls ($255), spinning tops ($12), wooden toy cameras ($72), and dual-tone fifteen-minute hourglasses ($60) (Creatures of Comfort, 205 Mulberry St., nr. Spring St.; 212-925-1005; through 2/26).
