Culacino [kuhl a CHEEN o] n. Italian for the mark left on a table by a wet glass.
Leave it to the Italians to come up with such a pointed word for such a precise thing! Remember it next time you set a cold glass down on a table without a coaster...
The pretty laser-cut wood coasters in the picture come in a set of eight for $40 at A+R.











Now I'm tempted to get my woodworker father-in-law to make some custom wood coasters for me â those are gorgeous!
