High End Gifts for the Wealthy
Gift Recipient Must Love Wine, and You Must Be Very Generous!
Mar 29th
As I was pulling together a range of gift idea selections for our wine gift store, I came across a piece of art that made me wonder – who has the money to buy this gift online? It’s gorgeous. And I absolutely see why this piece of detailed glass artwork is desirable. But, a $14,000+ purchase online?
One very positive reason to purchase this is that the artist, David Van Noppen, will personally deliver and install it for you!!!
Limited edition art for wine enthusiasts (deep pockets and a generous spirit required):
| Hanging Grape Vine |
| $14,850 (Limited Edition) |
| Created by: David Van Noppen
Hand formed interlocking glass grape vine. Twenty four grape clusters in amethyst, wine red, amber, and green tones. This piece hangs on support webbing. Each grape cluster hangs from either the webbing or off of glass leaves that are attached to the webbing. A sturdy location is required for hanging, as this piece can weigh in excess of 150 lbs. Due to the unique nature of this work, color and individual elements will vary from those shown. Please Note: |

The Zeo is a personal sleep monitor that you wear on on your forehead with a lightweight stretchy band. The Zeo monitors your brain activity provides data about the quality of sleep that you are getting.
The Zeo is NOT A MEDICAL DEVICE!!! It IS a cool gadget that can help you understand more about the quality of sleep you are getting when you make changes to your routine (by monitoring your sleep patterns and brain patterns at night while you are sleeping). For example, you might see that you have an average ZQ score between 50 and 60 when you first start (if you do not typically get high-quality sleep), but you might make changes in your life in the following and see how your score improves:
- Exercise!!!
- Number of caffeinated drinks per day
- How close to bedtime you have caffeine
- Eating sweets
- How close you eat to bedtime
- Alcohol consumption
- How many pillows you use
- The firmness of your pillow(s)
- Lighting in your room (e.g. if your digital alarm clock faces you or faces away from you)
- What time you go to bed
- How close to bedtime you watch TV
- Tobacco/nicotine
- Reading before bed (for pleasure or for business)
- Etc. etc.
You can learn a lot more at the Zeo Website…

It’s a new age. And Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea would probably have a different storyline with today’s fishing technology advancements.
| Help a helpless fisherman in your life come home with a respectable catch! |
While not a cheap gift, a fish finder (aka “fishfinder”) is also not un-attainable from a budget perspective. Most fishfinders range from $199 to $2,800.
Some popular brands of fishfinders include EchoPilot, Furuno, Humminbird, Interphase, Northstar, and Raymarine.
