Coastal & Proud
Coasters, ornaments, and decor engraved with the coastline, the landmarks, and the small-town names that make this state home.
The Collection
Every piece starts with something true about this state — a coastline, a landmark, a town name — engraved by hand.
Slate and cork coasters engraved with sea turtles, compass roses, and a coordinate or town name of your choosing.
Lighthouses, the state outline, and coastal motifs sized to hang on a tree, hook on a bag, or sit on a shelf year-round.
Lightboxes, key holders, and boat-cleat racks built for a beach house entryway or a covered porch.
Why it works as a gift
Coasters, ornaments, and wall pieces sized and styled for a coastal rental, a weekend house, or a porch that needs a little personality.
A housewarming gift for someone who just moved to the coast — personalized with their new town name, no passport required.
For alumni, transplants, and anyone who left the coast but didn't leave it behind — a small, lasting reminder of home.
NC Notes
Small facts worth knowing before your next coastal gift — or your next trip to the Outer Banks.
Tallest on the Coast
Standing nearly 200 feet tall, it's the tallest brick lighthouse in the United States — and one of the most recognizable on the East Coast.
Moved to Save It
In 1999, engineers relocated the entire Cape Hatteras Lighthouse nearly 2,900 feet inland to protect it from beach erosion.
A Sailor's Warning
The shoals off Cape Hatteras have wrecked so many ships over the centuries that sailors gave these waters their grim nickname.
First in Flight
The Wright Brothers made the world's first powered flight on the Outer Banks — it's even printed on our license plates.
Where the Nickname Comes From
NC's nickname traces back to its early tar, pitch, and turpentine industry, harvested from the state's pine forests.
200 Miles of Sand
A roughly 200-mile string of barrier islands separates our mainland sounds from the open Atlantic.
