Bowl & Board

A mecca of domesticity in Harvard Square: honey-scented candles, stacks of stainless strainers, smooth-wooden bowls, and custom doorknobs will add to any cookie-cutting life-style. A smaller and more eclectic alternative to nearby Crate and Barrel, Bowl & Board offers a modest selection of classy furniture (tables $40-495, lamps $100-235), in addition to picture frames, floormats, and kitchen extras such as fine teas and egg timers. Look out for the somewhat imposing wall of clocks ($20-$242), with vintage as well as sleek metallic models all ticking and tocking in unison.
