It’s said that a man’s home is his castle, which would make his “man cave” his lair where he can enjoy a reprieve from the pressures of daily life, watch sports and other television or movies in peace and generally relax in a space he can call his very own—and decorate accordingly! Man caves also offer an abundance of gifting opportunity, from mixology to technology and gadgetry to interior décor. Here are a few great gift ideas that can ensure he’s suitably and stylishly sequestered.
Rat Pack
The Rat Pack epitomized the coolest cats of their time—Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr. and Dean Martin, who ruled the Las Vegas and Hollywood scene during the 1950’s and 1960’s. Now you can capture the enduring spirit of each of these venerable performers with unique handmade, wood-carved panels. Designed by Christopher Guy, one of the most prestigious names in the designer furniture business renowned for his elegant, luxurious furniture collections and pieces, this distinctive wall art will truly set that man cave apart. Produced to satisfy the lofty requirements of the world’s best interior spaces, from breathtaking residential homes to some of the finest hotels, casinos and resorts worldwide, these panels aptly combine the classic and the contemporary and will add strong visual impact to an interior.
