8 of the best workspace accessories from Craighill

When it comes to EDC and accessories, the guys at Craighill are a go to for us here at The Coolector and we love all their sleek, sophisticated and functional designs. If you’re after some bits to add a touch of class and dapperness to your workspace this summer, look no further than Craighill. Check out our pick of 8 of the best workspace essentials from Craighill below:



TYCHO PUZZLE | $125

The Tycho Puzzle is an intriguing mental and physical challenge that will serve as a distraction when you need a break from your work load. It’s difficult to solve, satisfying to hold, and striking to display. Consisting of eight pieces of brass and stainless steel, the components fit together to form a cube with gently rounded edges. The Tycho Puzzle also boasts a hidden interior cavity that’s a perfect place to conceal a meaningful surprise. The solution to the puzzle might initially seem clear, but upon closer inspection there are nuances, asymmetries, and interferences that prevent a simple stacked approach. 


CLOUD PLANTER | $48

A cracking collab between the NYC design companies Lichen and Craighill, the Cloud Planter is an uncomplicated home for your jade, fern, or ficus. Their first collaboration, it finds the two teams exploring a shared appreciation for understated, accessible products that quietly enhance any environment. Crafted from agglomerated cork with a waterproof resin incorporated throughout the body. It is made for planting directly in the vessel or dropping in any standard 6” plant liner. It features a beveled edge running around the perimeter to reflect light and ensure a single crisp detail, and it’s finished with the Lichen and Craighill logos laser etched on the underside.


MATCH STRIKER | $38

The Match Striker from Craighill is destined to become central to your combustion-focused rituals. Whether you’re setting a mood with incense, creating ambience with candles, or building a mighty blaze – it all starts with a flick of the wrist. This will add a real touch of Don Draper-esque sophistication to any workspace this summer and it is made from solid cast iron, meaning it is surprisingly dense and serves as a nice anchor against which to create a spark. The exterior surface features a deep knurling pattern, which provides the necessary friction to bring it all together.


CHROMA SCISSORS | $48

For us, scissors are entirely synonymous with creativity. From the earliest age, we have known that scissors can help us unlock and transform a simple piece of paper into a beautiful snowflake or an abstract form. In celebration of these small acts of imagination, the team at Craighill created the Chroma Scissors which are a cutting tool that is playful, functional, and wholly satisfying to use.


Kepler Pen | $78

The process of recording information and thoughts by hand is essential to the human experience. From making a list to writing fiction, drawing up plans or composing a letter – we all use writing instruments to communicate our thoughts and dreams to each other and ourselves. As such a good quality pen is a must for your workspace and they don’t come much classier than the Kepler Pen from Craighill. It is available in Brass, Stainless Steel, and PVD Black coated Stainless Steel (Vapor Black).


NOCTURN CATCH | $88

Equally at home on your dresser, workspace, or coffee table, this solid American hardwood catch-all provides an ideal home for your all your daily essentials. Surprisingly hefty, and with a smooth satin finish, you might wind up loving the Nocturn Catch from Craighill even more than the objects you keep on it. 


DESK PAD | $38

When it comes to taking notes and list making, the Craighill Desk Pad is a cut above the competition. Crafted in a storied Parisian workshop, a sturdy metal frame with rubber feet anchors a perforated writing pad, ideal for neatly tearing out pages on the fly. The pad is affixed to the frame with two handsomely textured brass nuts, and packs of refill pads are available in dot grid or blank paper varieties. 


DESK KNIFE | $70

A multi-functionalcutting tool intended to live on your desk, always within reach, the Craighill Desk Knife is a workspace essential in our opinion here at Coolector HQ. It takes it design inspiration from the Japanese kiridashi knife, but it has been recontextualised for the modern workspace, the Desk Knife is elemental and satisfying to use.
