Online shopping site of the week: The Luxury Gift Company (www.theluxurygift company.com)
Based in Hong Kong, The Luxury Gift Company offers the finest of the finest in gifts for him, her or baby. While the selection is somewhat limited, the items the company has chosen reflect the luxury title.
Gifts include cashmere for every member of the family — blankets, sweaters, yoga outfits, music boxes for baby — crystal decanters, fine photo frames, personalized stationary and, my favorite, personalized chef outfits.
Design of the site itself is exquisite (easy to use and still very visual), and it won Best Shopping Web site from the Web Marketing Association in 2005.
Prices are listed in Hong Kong dollars, but approximate exchanges are given for U.S. currency, as well as yen, pounds, euro and the Australian dollar.
