Untranslatable Words Card Set
A set of 20 cards which explain the meaning behind untranslatable words from around the world.
We’re hugely dependent on language to express how we really feel, and yet words often feel curiously vague or frustratingly inaccurate. There are lots of moods, needs and feelings that our own language has not yet properly pinned down. The perfect word - even if it comes from abroad - helps us explain ourselves to other people, and its existence quietly reassures us (and everyone else) that a state of mind is not really rare, just rarely spoken of.
This set of cards define some of our favourite words from the world's languages and married them up with complementary images to create cards that bring some of our most important feelings into focus. We’ve created them to prompt greater reflection about the nature of language and the emotions.
Example Cards
DUENDE (Spanish): A heightened sense of emotion created by a moving piece of art.
FORELSKET (Norwegian): The euphoric feeling at the beginning of love. We can’t believe someone so perfect has wandered into our lives. They enhance and complete us. We might report: ‘I was overpowered by forelsket as our fingers interlaced…’
YŪGEN (Japanese): Gives a name to a mood in which one feels that the universe as a whole possesses a mysterious and elusive beauty. Moonlight, snow on distant mountains, birds flying very high in the evening sky, and watching the sun rise over the ocean all feed this sensibility.

Sunset Reed Diffuser
€35.00
Sunset reed diffusers feature custom-printed glass vessels donned with earth-toned motifs, sun shapes, and horizon lines inspired by the scenes of summer in California.
Moonrise: 12am. Heatwaves, late-night crowds, the lure of the dance floor melding smoke and strange perfumes. Balmy, ambiguous, free. Yuzu, Indian Jasmine, and Smoked Cedarwood.
Golden Hour: 5pm. Rustling grasses, baked earth, sun rays split between trees. Mellow, dry, tranquil. Bergamot, Hay, and Golden Poppy.
Dusk: 8pm. Taking the long way home, the buzz of streetlights, everything washed in shades of blue. Mysterious, dreamy, captivating. Clary Sage, Iris, and Palo Santo.
-Insert rattan reeds directly into bottle and flip weekly or as needed to refresh the scent.
-To create a lighter, more subtle scent throw, insert just a few reeds or remove as needed!
-Keep away from direct sunlight or other heat sources to avoid drying out the reeds.
-These fragrance oils are not developed for aromatherapy diffusers or humidifiers.
-Do not consume and keep away from children or pets. If the oil spills, clean up immediately, as the oils and resins can cause damage to some finishes.
Each Sunset reed diffuser contains 3.75 fl oz (110 ml) of fine fragrance oil and will last approximately 3-4 months.
