The Sarut Group is an innovative, international gift country that imports giftware from eclectic and unique European, Asian, and African vendors. Ultimately, the Sarut Group aspires to provide their clients with unusual and whimsical products that will entertain, inspire, and enrich their lives.
Focusing on natural, innovative, and timeless products for every age, The Sarut Group’s distinctive gift items are both fun and practical. The name Sarut (pronounced Sa-roo), is derived from the names of Alan Ceppos’ grandparents – Sadie, Arch and Ruth. Since 1985, he and Frederic Rambaud have worked with creative talent from around the globe to make The Sarut Group into the internationally acclaimed company it is today.
Everywhere you look these days, the functional is getting a coat of froufrou. Let’s call it cutility. Toasters, desk sets, bike accessories even tools are no longer dull, straightforward, undecorated things. They are gussied up with polka dots, flowers or Disney characters to reflect the owner’s personality and to make the mundane fun.
The firm distributes practical items with fanciful designs, such as cheese graters shaped like princesses in long skirts, vegetable peelers that are Asian characters and “Nemo whisks” shaped like fish. “Everything we do is very functional. But it brings an element of whimsy into the home,” says company spokeswoman Sharon Hitchcock. “We take ordinary objects and make you smile.”
In this same-old, same-old world, she says, “it’s an attempt to make your home an oasis.”
