CC Gift Giving Guide

Have you been searching for that special and unique gift that the big box stores and usual retailers just don’t have? ?Look no further. CC has got you covered. ?We have another 5 shipping days to go until we close for our annual Christmas break and are excited to showcase some of our favourite items. We feature items from under $20, under $100 and under $1000 in our gift giving guide below.

For Foodies…

For the foodie in your home we have loads of special items including this antique Allez Freres French Pot – this beautiful hand hammered and forged copper pot with thick brass handles is usable even today but looks incredible displayed in your chef’s kitchen. This piece is about 20″ in diameter so it’s large enough to whip up a few pounds of moules et frites!
