The Messenger is the gift that keeps on regifting

Deciding on a gift is always a difficult decision no matter how close two people may be, but once the gift is decided on, bought, and subsequently given, the process is done and over.

With its Messenger, Nomadic Gifts is looking to extend the life of the process for years to come.  Inspired by the intrepid carrier pigeons of yesteryear, the Messenger is a small porcelain bird with a hole in its middle that can hold a rolled up, hand-written message. It comes encased in a lustrous bamboo box that doubles as a stand on which to place the messenger, but Nomadic Gifts doesn’t want it to be left and forgotten like other gifts. To do so, the company encourages recipients to hold onto the Messenger until another occasion for a gift comes up, at which point every recipient becomes a gifter again.
