If you love Amsterdam as much as we do, this is the gift you want to buy yourself (or a loved one for that matter). We especially love their necklaces, bracelets and earrings, dedicated to the capitals of the World. They call it “Beauty of the City“, available in plated gold & silver or 14K gold. Just to point out that their 14K gold is responsible, meaning that it is traceable and has been obtained with respect for people and nature. Love it!

(It has even been tested with toilet water!) It filters water 99.9999 of bacteria and parasites. The handy straw (which weighs almost nothing) can filter up to 1,000 liters of water before it needs replacing. Useful? Yes!
