OUR STORY
A few years ago, I was walking through a market in Dubai and came across a stall selling frankincense and myrrh. It was an amazing moment. Here, I thought, are the gifts of the Three Kings. Of course I knew about frankincense and myrrh, but, to be honest, I really didn’t know what either of them were. Nonetheless, when I picked up the pieces of frankincense and myrrh and held them in my hand, I felt an immediate connection or more accurately, a sense of completion. I was touched by a simple idea: here are the Gifts of the Magi the real, actual gifts they had given. I couldn’t help but think that everyone would enjoy this same experience this connection to the Original Gifts of Christmas.
The Box: the silhouette of the Magi following the Christmas star opens to a satin-lined treasure trove holding the gifts of the Three Kings.
The Gold: 23 karat gold floating in a hand-blown glass globe.
The Frankincense: the highest quality found in Oman and Yemen the same regions as the original gift brought by Balthazar.
The Myrrh: from Arabia the source of the finest myrrh and the same region as the gift brought by Caspar.
