The Curious Gift Co. is a Canadian gift shop rooted in place, story, and identity. Based in Chatham-Kent, Ontario, we create and curate things with something to say: about where we come from, what we’ve read, what we remember, and the stories that have shaped us.

Books are a big part of that.

Our literary collection is for readers who know that the books we love have a way of becoming part of us. You’ll find literary apparel, book lover gifts, reading accessories, tote bags, stationery, and thoughtfully chosen pieces inspired by great stories, sharp words, quiet rebellion, nostalgia, and a lifelong curiosity about the world.

Some pieces are unmistakably bookish. Others simply feel like they belong to someone well read, a little opinionated, and interested in more than what’s trending.

Because whether the story begins in a favourite novel, a Canadian song, a small Ontario town, or somewhere in your own history, we think the things that mean the most are the ones that remind you who you are.
