Your older sister lives in England, has a British husband and loves France. In many ways, she’s the opposite of you, a little kooky, and you’ve always wanted to be just like her. Air-mail your love with these treasures.

Blaue Blume Tea Pot, $128, make drinking tea a glamorous and seductive affair, with gold shoes. Savon du Marseille Soap, $23, indulging her francophile tendencies. Vintage Camera Photo Album, $10, a place to stash her adventures.
The Elegance of the Hedgehog
Leather Backpack, $557, just in case one of you should become rich, this goes on the list. Antique Ferrotype Necklace, $80, for her love of history. The Elegance of the Hedgehog, $9, translated from French on the bourgeoisie.
Vintage Brass Unicorn, $20, a charming reminder of her childhood collection. Copper Tortoise Grater, $37, because she first taught you how to cook and likes river animals.
