Town + Country Christmas Catalogue — 2016 Edition
A few stocking stuffer ideas for that new White Cedar home of yours…
Speedster Espresso – Kees van der Westen
When this Dutch
designer debuted the Speedster in 2001, the appliance was a shiny toy for a few well-connected pals: He hot-rodded La Marzoccos, producing souped-up machines with torqued profiles. By 2008, when the Speedster was reintroduced as a production model in Copenhagen, van der Westen had broken with La Marzocco. The Speedster is now geared to the espresso obsessed, not the casual user, and is much more bespoke than ready-to-wear. $11,000, www.keesvanderwesten.com
Oyster Bamboo Handcrafted Rod
Oyster Bamboo handcrafted rods are
made in the United States from a single culm of Tonkin bamboo, with duplicate tip sections made from the same culm position as the primary tip. Each rod is hand-split, planed, and engraved, with nickel silver reel seats and ferrules, plus agate stripping guides. Topped off with fine silk thread, Portuguese cork, and a powder-coated aluminum tube, these poles are ready to hit the river. The medium-taper rod loads easily for short distances but proves stiff enough for longer casts.
For the Master Series, additional options include 24-karat-gold inlay, a downlocking reel seat, a hand-engraved game scene or other specialty engraving, a rattan grip, and more. $4,600; www.oysterbamboo.com

1947 Dodge Power Wagon 6×6 Pickup
This is a very impressive truck. Obviously we haven’t probed the outer limits of its off-roading abilities, but we’re pretty sure nothing else can touch it. We have experienced it on the road, and unlike its predecessors, it’s comfortable, relatively agile, and easy to handle, and doesn’t need any special considerations out on the road. It’s bulletproof reliable, fun to drive, and few other vehicles we’ve driven attract this much attention. This truck successfully blends the original Power Wagon DNA with modern performance, giving you the absolute best of both worlds. $109,900 www.hemmings.com
