How many of us have a pair of gym weights at home? Maybe those two- or three-kilo ones, usually in bright colors like orange, green, or fuchsia. It doesn’t matter whether we use them occasionally or every day — the question is always the same: “Where do I put them?”
Inside a drawer or on a closet shelf they might be too heavy, but leaving them out in plain sight on a shelf or coffee table is definitely not the most aesthetic choice. That’s exactly what Rachel was thinking before founding her brand.

Rachel, a fan of bodyweight workouts, yoga, and Pilates, was looking at her weights on the floor after a training session when she suddenly wondered how nice it would be if the weights had a different shape — something closer to a design piece.
She immediately began sketching out various objects, often starting from the shapes of classic dumbbells or kettlebells, and then letting her imagination run wild. After some time, Subtle Impacts was born — her brand of Decorative Weights.
Today, her brand features five pieces that vary in shape and weight. It starts with the simple Booked Weight Set at 2 pounds, which can also double as bookends. Then there’s the Aesthetic Dumbbell Kettlebell at 8 pounds, the Aesthetic Dumbbell at 10 pounds, the Aesthetic at 15 pounds, and finally, the Aesthetic Kettlebell at 20 pounds.
Each piece is available in four shades, from lightest to darkest: Luna, Sand, Dusk, and Black. Basically, it’s almost impossible not to find one that fits perfectly with your living room, kitchen, or bedroom.
What makes these objects unique is that they’re ideal both for yoga and Pilates workouts and for display on shelves, coffee tables, or alongside a set of vases — finally solving the problem of where to put your gym weights when you’re not using them.
