The sloping top of this new utensil holder ($25) is a clever design feature that keeps shorter tools, like small whisks and parers, from getting lost behind taller spoons and spatulas. Made in France by Emile Henry, the 166-year-old family-owned company known for glazed ceramic cookware, the holder measures 5½ inches in diameter. It comes in an assortment of colors, including deep burgundy, all embossed with the Emile Henry logo. The holder is sturdy and heavy enough not to tip over, just the thing to help you bring order to those cluttered kitchen drawers. Available at Kitchen Outfitters, Acton Woods Plaza, 342 Great Road, Acton, 978-263-1955; Local Root, 221 Concord Ave., Cambridge, 617-354-2400, and 2284 Washington St., Newton Lower Falls, 617-467-4847; and TAGS Hardware, Porter Square Shopping Center, 29 White St., Cambridge, 617-868-7711.JEAN KRESSY
