Di Martino Italian Maiolica Assorted Pasta Tin
This gorgeous and giftable offering contains six individually packaged parcels of various durum wheat semolina pastas—penne mezzani rigate, tortiglioni, elicoidali, fresine, bucatini, and linguini—all crafted by the Italian pasta makers at Di Martino.
Each limited-edition pasta tin is richly decorated with motifs from three 16th-century Italian maiolica (tin-glazed earthenware) dishes in The Met collection—a nod to Italian heritage and craft.
Available for purchase at The Met Fifth Avenue and online.
Junzi Year of the Dragon Celebration Chili Oils and Dry-Aged Tea
Running in 12-year cycles, each year of the traditional East Asian lunar calendar corresponds to one of the 12 animals in the Chinese zodiac. Celebrate the mysterious mythological dragon in 2024 and beyond with these limited-edition chili oils and a jar of dry-aged tangerine tea by Junzi.
The packaging honors the colorful dragon on a medallion made in the 16th century during China’s Ming dynasty (1368–1644). Contemporary records note that members of the imperial family wore dragon medallions, and this richly embroidered roundel was probably meant to decorate a robe.
Available for purchase at The Met Fifth Avenue and on Junzi's website.

Selamlique Turkish Coffee and Turkish Delights
Derived from the term selamlık, referring to the area in Ottoman homes where guests were entertained, Selamlique is an Istanbul-based brand devoted to Turkish coffee—best sipped in the company of others—and shareable confectionery.
These assorted chocolate-covered Turkish delights are presented in an elegant box reproducing the motif on a kaleidoscopic Turkish tile panel in The Met collection. Such early 17th-century tiles were made in the renowned Iznik kilns, which produced splendid ceramic wares for the Ottoman court.
