Lanos
A boutique gift shop specializing in premium home decor and artisanal products, a hidden gem for elegant gifts.
Lanos is a Singapore-based online gift store founded by Sonal Khimji, who describes the brand name as her name spelt backwards. The store curates giftable items across home decor, candles, shawls, bags, jewellery, baby gifts, yoga accessories, festive gifts and small keepsakes, with published product prices ranging from low-cost items such as incense and tea towels to higher-priced jewellery and cashmere pieces. Lanos positions itself around ready-stock gifts, gift wrapping, personal messages and next-day delivery within Singapore for orders received before 8pm SGT. Its website says orders above S$100 come with free delivery in Singapore. The store has also been featured or listed by publications and blogs including Expat Living, Vanilla Luxury, Wise Move and several Singapore gift-delivery roundups, though shoppers should rely on the current website for live stock and prices.
Nestled in Far East Plaza, Lanos stands out as a sophisticated gift boutique that has mastered the art of curating exceptional presents. Their carefully selected collection of home decor pieces, artisanal products, and bespoke gifts reflects a deep understanding of contemporary elegance. The shop's intimate setting allows for personalized shopping experiences, making gift selection a delightful journey rather than a mere transaction.
Lanos earned its place on TheBestSG for its commitment to quality and uniqueness in Singapore's gift retail scene. Their dedication to sourcing distinctive items, combined with exceptional customer service and gift customization options, sets them apart from conventional gift shops. The boutique's ability to consistently deliver premium gift solutions while maintaining a personal touch makes them a standout choice.
