Apartment 48’s mother-of-pearl coastersNo one wants rings on their new wooden or lacquer coffee table. Still, better to let your guests rest a martini glass on that delicate surface than force them to use some heinous old coasters. Whether donning exclamations like Cheers!, kitschy pictures of fifties pin-ups or woven from boring beige wicker, most coasters bypass form for function. Luckily now chic meandering home store Apartment 48, referred to by customers as a play-land for grownups, carries beautiful mother-of-pearl coasters handmade in Indonesia. More than just a safe haven for resting cocktails, these circular discs actually add class and glamour to a party scene. Set of four: $32, Apartment 48, 48 W. 17th St., (212) 807-1391
