Who doesn’t love an Advent calendar? The thrill of discovering a piece of chocolate, an ornament, or some such treasure on a cold December morning—for Christmas revelers it ranks right up there with madeleines as a proverbial throwback to childhood. This holiday season, Tiffany & Co. has taken that time-honored tradition to a whole new level. Working in collaboration with the estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat, the luxury house has adapted the artist’s 1982 painting Equals Pi into a limited-run cabinet of curiosities, with 24 individually wrapped treasures—one for each day leading up to Christmas Eve. (For those celebrating Hanukkah, there’s the option to include eight gifts, one for each night.) Highly personalized, the freestanding white-oak piece comes with the jewelry and home accessories of your choice.

Consider it an only–in–New York moment: the posthumous union of the consummate downtown rebel and the iconic Big Apple company. Much has been written about the painting’s uncanny resemblance to Pantone color 1837, otherwise known as Tiffany Blue. And art lovers will be able to see it for themselves at the brand’s Fifth Avenue flagship. The work (recently acquired by LVMH) will be on view at the space when it emerges from its ongoing renovation late next year. Of course, consumers of culture will already recognize it from Tiffany’s new About Love campaign, starring Beyoncé and Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter. It’s the rare brushstroke that can hold its own against wonders of the world Jay and Bey. Leave it to Tiffany to make the stars align. Price upon request; tiffany.com
