BRIKA Subscription Gift Box

The BRIKA Subscription Gift Box is a handpicked selection of well-crafted goods delivered monthly. You can choose to send (or receive!) as a 3-month ($25 per month) or 6-month ($21 per month) subscription.

BRIKA's Gift Concierge works with you to design a box that will best suit the taste of your recipient. They'll even handwrite a note for you and send it along in the box. And there is no shame in getting this just for yourself, that's what I did!

This box was sent to us for review purposes. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).

I adore the packaging on the BRIKA box. It came in a thick kraft outer box to protect the pretty white box inside. It's a very cheerful and well designed unboxing experience, which is exactly what you want in a gift.

I told my gift concierge that I liked things from the shop Poketo, didn't want anything scented, love ceramics, and that my husband and I had just purchased our first home. They also have the option to include things for children, which I declined. The handwritten note is such a nice touch and told me about the products in my box. I agree, I am a super lady.

Farewell Paperie Shoulda Woulda Coulda Notebook - Value $14

The first product in the box was a notebook. The 4x8" notebook is bound with staples and has blank pages and a mint green paper cover. The phrase "Shoulda. Woulda. Coulda." are foil stamped on the cover. This isn't 100% suited to my taste but I am impressed by most everything that involves foil stamping on good paper.

The back of the notebook is foil stamped with the maker's mark - Farewell Paperie. You can also see the nice texture of the paper here.

Rabbit Foot Fern You're Such a Super Lady Pencil - Value $1.50

I've been seeing lots of great pencils with sentiments and phrases on them lately and I'm into it. I happen to love pens and pencils so I'm into this. It's a pretty small item, value wise, but it fits with current trends so I'm pleased. Plus, I will always accept compliments.

Scandinaviaform Bud Vase - Value $15?

This ceramic, cork and copper bud vase is adorable. It's perfect for a single flower or for a little sprig of eucalyptus. The glazed ceramic vase is off white. The cork and copper piece pop out of the ceramic base to make it easier to fill with water. I can't find this product for sale on the BRIKA website (or anywhere else for that matter) so I'm guessing  a value of $15.

Verdict: This is not a high-value box at $25 for $30 worth of goods, but it is a nice selection of well-crafted goods. Although not everything in this box was my style, I am into the packaging and the overall aesthetic at BRIKA. My favorite item was the bud vase, it looks great on my desk and is nearly impossible to knock over. I love the blend of ceramic, cork, and metal materials. I got the 3-month subscription so I can't wait for next month's gift box to arrive!

I really liked the vase so I went looking online. It retails $15. One of the places is blackthumbdecor.com There are 5 colors to choose from. There are other sites. I googled: scandanavian vases
