A Modern Take on a Heritage Classic
For over 50 years, our Botanic Garden collection has been a much-loved staple in homes around the world. Bloom Garden builds on this legacy with a contemporary feel, focusing on individual florals that feel bold, modern, and full of personality.
Each design gives space for intricate botanical detail and vibrant colour to shine, creating pieces that feel both striking and effortless. The result is a collection that honours its heritage while embracing a more modern approach to tableware.
What’s Included in the Collection
Bloom Garden has been thoughtfully designed for both everyday use and relaxed entertaining. The collection includes latte mugs, coffee mugs, espresso cups, and side plates, each featuring a single floral motif at its centre.
Whether you’re starting the day with coffee, serving desserts, or hosting a casual brunch, these versatile pieces bring colour and character to every moment. Crafted from earthenware in our Stoke-on-Trent factory, England, each item is also dishwasher and microwave safe, combining practicality with beautifully expressive design.
