FRILL SEEKER
Meet Astrid, the latest pendant from David Hunt Lighting. Priced at £204, it is available in 17 delightful colours. Inspired by Dutch porcelain light shades, Astrid flaunts playful fluted edges and graceful curves. There is a twisted braided cable in Oatmeal and you can choose from metalwork in classic Antique Brass, subtle Butter Brass, or contemporary Chrome. And if you have a specific hue in mind, you can take advantage of the bespoke colour-matching service.
TABLE MANNERS
LSA’s Folk collection, featuring the Folk dome with ash base, priced at £200, is inspired by Polish craftsmanship. This unique handcrafted process involves heating coloured glass rods before mouth-blowing them into bespoke moulds, meaning each piece is one-of-a-kind. The alternating colours are reminiscent of those found in Łowicki fabrics, typical of Polish costumes.
CRAFT WORK
Studio Atkinson presents the Noughts & Crosses collection, meticulously crafted from oak and handmade in the UK. This collection, inspired by a vintage bamboo dining table discovered by Susie Atkinson at a French market, has a coffee table, a side table, a console table and, shown, a dining table for £10,400, all inspired by the contrasting shapes of the original design. The bleached wood f inish showcases the natural grain for a textured, understated look, while the playful crossed feet and design elements add a touch of whimsy.
FLOOR FILLER
Mosaic Factory has announced its latest tile collaboration with Portuguese multidisciplinary artist AkaCorleone. Paysage Sauvage celebrates geometric, figurative and abstract shapes across seven decorative tiles. Prices are from £94sq m, with each tile handmade by skilled artisans in Tangier.
BRING IT HOME
Arlo & Jacob presents the Archie ottoman – its deep-buttoned detailing and sculpted wooden legs on castors make it a delightful addition to spaces both old and new. This standout piece, showcased here in Linwood’s Bibi Chitgar Ginger Biscuit fabric, is available in two sizes and priced from £1,095.
