Links & Recommended Sites

A short, deliberately personal list — references from the sectors we work in, storefronts we follow for craft, and standards we keep on hand.

In the course of client work we test, audit and read a great many websites. Rather than let useful finds disappear into bookmarks, this page collects the ones we would show to a colleague. We revisit the list now and then — and nothing on it is a paid placement.

E-commerce

Storefronts we follow

E-commerce is one of our six specialist sectors, so we keep an eye on how other people sell unusual things online.

SanaiRugs.com — our own build

An international carpet & rug store sold “Shop at the Ship” — merchandise listed while the shipment is still in transit. Our standing reference point for concept-led cataloguing.

A replica timepiece boutique we follow

One of the storefronts we check most often: a specialty shop for Patek Philippe replica timepieces, focused on one watch family and shipped worldwide. For anyone weighing up a fake Patek Philippe without the boutique price tag, it is one of the cleaner examples of focused cataloguing we have seen — clear photography, no filler lines. Its Nautilus replica collection is the best place to start, and the shop’s contacts page answers sourcing and lead-time questions within a day or two.
