Picnic perfection
Nothing quite says a royal bank holiday weekend like a picnic. Whether it’s a simple spread in the local park or a blanket by the seaside at sunset, you’ll need a lightweight rug to sit on and display the array of food and drinks you have brought. Set the scene with our Poppy Fields Picnic Rug. With its pretty pink palette and best-selling print, this is a love-forever piece and will be the envy of all other picnic goers this Jubilee weekend.
Summer is served
Did somebody say party? Nothing quite says street party like a glass of Pimms. So dust off that Deluxe Cocktail Shaker, scavenge your herb garden for that garnish of mint and get ready to serve your delicious drinks in our range of glassware. Hand-blown and crafted from recycled glass, our Copper Recycled Glass Tumbler guarantees compliments when you're entertaining while our Galaxy 5 Piece Cocktail Kit helps you to mix up the perfect drink to share with your friends, family and neighbours.
Alfresco dining
Whether your street is planning to host a traditional street party or branching out and offering a barbeque, it’s time to update your tableware collection for the summer season with some new pieces in neutral colourways. Our Shoreline range has been updated with a unique milky speckled glaze and hand-dipped earthenware terracotta rim, bringing natural tones to your dining set-up. Use them to serve everything from Coronation chicken sandwiches and Scotch eggs to the all-important Victoria sponge cake and scones with jam and clotted cream. The pale hue of the tableware ensures your meals will pop against the muted backdrop, making them perfect for the Instagram shots of the day.
Pull up a chair
For your street party, you will need chairs, chairs and more chairs. So it’s a good job we have some great outdoor seating to offer. Introducing the Havana Butterfly Chair. This foldable chair is perfect for when you are entertaining or relaxing, making it the perfect addition to your table this bank holiday weekend.
