Gifts for the home
Transform their living space into a stylish haven with one of our gifts for the home. Whether they have recently become a new homeowner or just adore all things interiors, a gift picked out, especially for their space is a thoughtful gesture they will love.
The Minerals stoneware oval platter is the perfect present for those who love to add beautiful finishing touches to their space. Handcrafted in Portugal, a reactive glaze washes over the inside, creating one-of-a-kind markings that make it unique. The platter could also work well as part of a two-part gift with the Minerals small bowls, which pair nicely when serving. There are few things more useful over the festive period than a trusty jug to serve homemade gravy or lashings of cream with Christmas pudding. This Sophie Conran Jug comes with a matching mini ladle and features Sophie’s iconic ripple design in clean white porcelain - an attractive design perfect for hosting all year round.
If they fancy themselves a wine connoisseur, a beautifully decorated carafe such as this Sara Miller Chelsea one, is exactly the gorgeous addition their collection is missing. Its curved base, narrow neck, and slightly angled opening is designed to provide the perfect pour whatever their tipple of choice may be. You could also pair it with the matching Wine Glasses or Tumblers for an extra special touch.
Gifts for coffee & tea lovers
For the coffee and tea enthusiasts in your life, our curated collection of gifts will have them sipping in style. A charming Tea for One set, such as this new Sara Miller Woodland Tales one, is the perfect companion for a cosy afternoon, complete with a teapot and cup. Or you can elevate their Christmas morning routine with the festive Snow Angel Mug from Wrendale Designs – the adorable illustration is sure to add a touch of cheer to every sip. And for espresso lovers, this set of two Artisanne Noir espresso cups and saucers will have them savouring their favourite brew in style.
