Introducing a AnOther Gift to Give, new series of luxurious Christmas gift guides curated by AnOther's friends and contributors from the worlds of art, fashion, food and music.

The African Gaze by Amy Sall

An introduction to postcolonial African film, beautifully edited and narrated by Amy Sall. It’s my ideal reference for holiday watching.

JW Anderson Knit Bag

I’ve been loving knitted bags recently; they’re cosy, fun and nostalgic. This green one by JW Anderson would be a welcome pop of colour in my winter wardrobe.

Gabriel Moses Print

A print by visionary photographer Gabriel Moses, the profit from which supports an urgent and worthy cause. Couldn’t ask for more.

Jade Necklace by Sophie Buhai

I wear stones every day and they affect my mood and energy. Jade is my lucky stone, and this chunky necklace by Sophie Buhai has been a long-time obsession.

Perfume Flask by Anne-Lise Agossa

Designer Anne-Lise Agossa recently released a line of limited-edition objects inspired by fossils and hibiscus petals. Agossa’s portable perfume flask would be the chicest bottle for my favourite scent.
