Our 2012 picks for presents include unique and - we say - downright fun twists on classic gifts for her like jewelry and handbags.

We know of a few Danish design icons: Hans Wegner wishbone chairs, Georg Jensen silver, Verner Panton pendant lighting... Now add Christiania cargo bikes to that list. Designed in 1984 in the hippie municipality inside Copenhagen, these bikes are now the transportation mode of choice for parents on the go. Christiania Boxcycle, $2,950 at Adeline Adeline.

Senegal Baskets by Eileen Fisher, $138 garnethill.com One of our favorite insider secrets is the home line that Eileen Fisher does for Garnet Hill. (Check out the bath towels, for one.) This set of three fair-trade baskets, made of natural cattails and strips of reclaimed plastic, were commissioned by Fisher and are handmade by the Wolof weavers of Senegal in partnership with the Peace Corps.

Brooklyn studio The Principals re-designed the classic “double 6” domino set with men's retailer Billy Reid. Cast from concrete and completely rethought in terms of shape, weight, and numbering style. $70 from The Dwell Store.

Wooden Tumbling Tower, $28 shopterrain.com Games: fun for the whole family. This hand-crafted one is made of eco-friendly Monkey Pod wood and, like Jenga, is based on a traditional building block game from Africa.

Milo & Mitzy Circle/Grid Blanket by Forestry, $218 stevenalan.com These pure wool throw blankets, made from New Zealand wool, are designed in by a native Aucklander based in the Netherlands with clean modern lines in a traditional material: sturdy, warm, and lightweight.

Spotted Rug in black, $69 someware.com Give some seriously laidback vibes with this 19.5"x3-" rug that was handwoven and dyed by artisans in Santander, Colombia. The accent carpet is made from fique, a plant fiber that, similar to agave sisal, is native to South America.

Light Object 001 in Black by Naama Hofman, $582.85 larcobaleno.com Naama Hofman—a Tel Aviv-based lighting designer we featured in Dwell's April 2012 issue—combines art and technology in this minimalist lamp. The bent metal rod is secured to an acrylic pipe that houses approximately 120 LEDS and can be placed tabletop in numerous positions or hung on the wall.

02 Optic Alarm Clock by Joe Colombo for Alessi, $84 store.dwell.com This sporty little battery-powered number works on a bedside table, or even on the road. Its curvy plastic case brings a dose of Italian industrial design to time-telling—for the true globetrotters, set it to Majorca time and start dreaming about your next vacation.

Sake Pitcher by Japanese Ceramics, $44 stillhousenyc.com From Maarten Baas to Jens Faber, we love a rough-hewn take on a traditional silhouette. This affordable, snowy white pitcher is made in Japan (in an area known for its mastery of porcelain) from high-fired ceramic with a glazed interior.

Liquid Body Flask by The Principals, $45 areaware.com Be ever-ready to hit the road with this designer-made, mirror-finish, six-ounce steel flask. Its unique manufacturing process lends it an inflated liquid look, not unlike a Mylar balloon or foil drink packet.

Navy backpack by Mismo, $540 at stilleben.dk One of Copenhagen's reigning design shops, Stilleben, now offers online retail for its pitch-perfect array of tabletop pieces, art, and home goods. Danish brand Mismo doesn't come cheap, but it's built to last. We like the roll top, brass detailing, and leather straps.

Japanese Cast Iron Bear Bookends, $265 shop.nickeykehoe.com Los Angeles decorator Nicky Kehoe's shop is chock-full of international treasures, from African feather scupltures to Spanish wool throws to cast iron accessories from Japan, like these ursine bookends.

Games are never not a good idea. Plus, you can play them once the novelty of this year's Santa haul wears off. This dominoes set from American designers Fredericks and Mae are beautiful objects to boot. Moon Dominoes, $80 at The Primary Essentials.

We went shopping for stocking stuffers and scene-stealing gifts tailored to the entertainer in your life so you don't have to. Party on.

The living area is designed for entertaining. On sunny days, the glass walls slide back so it’s totally open. The semi-opaque screen can also be opened to catch the last rays of the setting sun. At night and in poor weather, the whole assembly closes up, the laminated sliding doors sealing out drafts and locking in the day’s warmth. As is typical for a bach like this, the owners have used inexpensive furnishings; in this case, second-hand bar stools and generic paper shades.

The SSB-1 by Erik Heywood for BOOK/SHOP, $199 from book---shop.com Available in walnut or birch wood, the shelf offers an attractive way to store books. Set on the floor in a kids' nursery or on a table to keep prized items organized and in view.

The Infographic Designers' Sketchbooks by Steven Heller and Rick Landers, $60 from chroniclebooks.com We're in the era of data visualization and infographics and this tome from Princeton Architectural Press deconstructs how designers go about making everything from leaderboards to charts that need to relay complex details at a glance. The book also shows the meticulous process behind creating the graphics—the notebook sketches, storyboard mapping, and more.

Fluorescent Pink/Amber Sculpture No. 18 by Phillip Low, $660 at art-object.totokaelo.com New York City artist Phillip Low's saturated, prismatic acrylic sculptures are such a favorite of the Dwell office that our creative team hired Low to craft the second annual Dwell Vision Award in 2014. This pyramidal piece involves semi-transparent neon orange and neon pink acrylic with neon amber refraction from the sides.

For fans of groundbreaking American fiber artist Sheila Hicks, take a gander at weavings by Minna ($250 as shown). Pro tip: You can also view Hicks's work at the 2014 Whitney Biennial, the last biennial art exhibition that will be held inside Marcel Breuer's building on Madison Avenue.

Beetle 02 print by Note Design Studio for Paper Collective, $62 at paper-collective.com Following in the wake of Warby Parker, a business model that pairs philanthropy with e-commerce, there's no reason you're gift-giving this season shouldn't give back. Paper Collective, an art print purveyor from Copenhagen, contributes proceeds from every poster sold to the designer's charity of choice. The Stockholm design studio has created a series of overprinted posters with slight color field mismatches; the benefits go to Greenpeace.

Online framing from Framebridge and Framed & Matted, from $99 for 12"x16" Framing art is notoriously expensive, and it's a frequent caveat when doling out prints as gifts. A few online companies are attempting to change the status quo by offering discount framing with the ease of a virtual dressing room. Framebridge's process is more customized: You send in your art using prepaid packaging, then either select a frame/mat style or the company's designers can recommend three frame-and-mat combinations, later receiving a ready-to-hang artwork. With Framed & Matted, you can upload a snapshot of your artwork, but all the framing materials you select come shipped to you with hardware for DIY assembly. Prices are equivalent—we compared costs for framing a 12"x16" piece, and both start at around $99. (Both Framebridge—shown above—and Framed & Matted offer gift cards as well.)

Above Home Woven Door Mat by Hlynur Atlason for Umbra Shift, $90 store.dwell.com A little bit Luis Barragán, a little bit David Hockney, these abstracted landscapes-turned-doormat are a raffish take on art masquerading as household accessory. Bonus? The mat is woven from abaca, a natural plant fiber that is odor- and moisture-resistant.

Grid Tapestry by Heddle and Needle, $175 at etsy.com Textile art has experienced a major resurgence in 2014, gaining popularity at every scale from a seasoned pro like Sheila Hicks putting up three exhibitions to a proliferation of Etsy shops led by creative, driven artists around the country. One such shop belongs to Rachel Gottesman, who sells on Etsy under the moniker Heddle and Needle. We especially like the deep indigo hues of her fringed Grid Tapestry, which some might call "architect-y" in its symmetry. (Hint: Gottesman's tapestries aren't huge—most measure around 11 by 22 inches—so check out her Instagram to see them in situ.)

Cement stair planter, $19.50, at Budd + Finn Available in single, double, or triple opening, this Brutalist-inspired planter is made to house small succulents or even serve as a desk caddy.

Roll Bottle Opener by Umbra Shift, $30 at A+R Store Rendered in solid brass, this bottle opener from Umbra Shift is too divine to relegate to a drawer.
