These days, you can spot a so-called hipster from a mile away; the tattered brown sweater, the horn-rimmed glasses, the slim jeans, the inevitably messy mop of hair. They're today's Buddy Hollys drug through the years of punk rock and '80s new-wave, and still, in spite of the 21st-century digital revolution, in love with vinyl.
When hunting down the perfect gift for the shabby-chic record collector in your life, look no further than Uncommon Goods' record bowls. Brooklyn-based artist Jeff Davis seals record holes with a coat of Mylar, then turns them into truly rockin' bowls for dry goods; or just to spark good conversation around a living room table. Featured in New York Magazine, these bowls, $25 each, are categorized based on musical genres: Rock & Roll, Show Tunes, Crooner, Diva, '80s, and R&B. If you prefer to personalize your bowl, ship your LP of choice to Uncommon Goods, and Davis will craft a bowl featuring whichever side of the record you'd like for $50.
