It Does Not Get More Cool-Yet-Functional Than These Kitchen Accessories

Wine is kind of the perfect drink for a lot of occasions including cooking in the kitchen. This grid rack by N Square Studios is essential in every wine lovers kitchen (or kitchen in general). The rack of course can be used for storing other things too in your kitchen, dining room or bar. Available in black and gold, the rack is chic and versatile.

If your kitchen is cluttered, then this nifty towel holder from the Weavers Nest should help getting a bit more organised. A few condiments and a towel/tissue roll holder should have a nice little home on this rack made of teakwood. We love that it's build in a way to avoid spills too!

Yes, modern mixer grinders have replaced the old way of grinding things down, but we still think that this kitchen accessory is a versatile tool. If you’re wondering why your grandmother's chutneys taste a little better than yours, we think the ‘secret ingredient’ is this tool. This mortar and pestle by Ellementry is made from marble and will last you for years.

Indian kitchens are loaded with numerous spices; it’s what makes our food so delicious. We add the powdered and dry spices, nuts, seeds, etc to get those flavours in, and what better than this essential kitchen accessory to store all these condiments? This condiment box by ConsciousCo is unlike the regular condiment boxes in terms of its looks and for sure a far better alternative for those average-looking plastic ones. We’d say it’s a great gifting option too.
