A note from Ransom

The moment I find a piece of glass that feels perfect in the hand, or a scent that completely transforms a room, I know it has to be in the box.

The Son of Rand Design Joy Box is as personal as it gets and I am so grateful for the opportunity to share this exciting new initiative with you.

Every quarter, when I’m choosing these objects, I’m not just filling a box - I’m sharing the things I am really using and the small, vital rituals that make my own time at home more meaningful and inspiring. The moment I find a piece of glass that feels perfect in the hand, or a scent that completely transforms a room, I know it has to be in the box.

This entire endeavor is driven by the pure joy of discovering these items and the deep desire to see them find a home with you. It is a genuine privilege to support the independent makers and brands whose work elevates the everyday. By subscribing, you aren't just getting objects; you are directly fueling the passion and craft of the incredible designers and creatives that color our lives so beautifully.

My greatest hope is that I can show up on your doorstep quarterly with a highly personalized gift, curated to bring you a little burst of joy each season.

Thank you for trusting me to bring this vision to life.

With sincere appreciation,

xRansom

Questions

How often does a box arrive?

Every three months, four times a year.

When do boxes ship?

Your first box ships within two weeks of ordering. Every box after that goes out to all members together at the start of the season: early December, March, June and September.

What is the difference between Discoverer and Collector?

Discoverer brings three to four pieces each season, with early access to new pieces. Collector brings five to eight, for anyone who wants to collect more from our shelves.

How does billing work?

You pay for your first box when you join. After that, you are billed each season ($180 for Discoverer, $315 for Collector) or once a year ($680 or $1,190, which works out to $170 or $297.50 a box). Skip, change or cancel anytime from your account before your next charge date.

Can I buy just one box?

Yes. Choose Just one box: $200 for Discoverer or $350 for Collector, with no subscription. It makes a good gift.

Will I know what is in the box before it arrives?

No, and that is the point. Every box is a surprise. The pictures on this page show the kinds of pieces we love, not what is coming next.
