The Collection
I choose pieces not simply because they’re vintage, but because they have that ‘something’. They can spark a feeling, make you smile and your heart sing. Nothing here is ordinary.

If pieces could be a place, this bowl and vase set would take us straight to the Mediterranean - sitting under the warmth of the sun by clear blue water, with a large seafood platter and crisp white wine. Their whimsical hand-painted images of birds, bees and wonderfully character-filled fish on the white rustic ceramic share that same delight. Sun, space, water and joy all in one place.
They do have an artist, but not one I can identify. I think that only adds to their charm - perhaps even adds a little mystery. But there’s another element that needs sharing, they feel wonderful. The ceramic is smooth, cool and soft to the touch. This set is certainly one of a kind - a wonderful kind.
Stunning. There is no other word to describe this hand blown, olive green wave bowl. It’s curves, three fluid layers of colour - dark, light and clear olive green, and seemingly moving edge makes it magic. Wherever you look you see something different, a change in depth, a different shade of olive green. There is nothing straight about this wonderful bowl.
Another beautiful detail is the light lines you can see and feel inside the bowl - almost as if you can imagine the glass blower expanding the molten glass to create it. There’s something wonderfully honest about pieces that don’t shy away from the marks of their making. This bowl feels like a quiet, respectful nod to the talented person who created it.
Salt cellars were once a small symbol of considered hosting (just a wee bit posh), and this mid-century silver-plated trio brings that tradition forward with quiet elegance. Understated, refined and wonderfully tactile, they feature delicate pierced metalwork, original glass liners and petite matching spoons - a whisper of a time when hosts thoughtfully placed one at each setting so no guest ever had to reach across the table.
What I love most about this set is its versatility. The clean, classic styling suits contemporary homes beautifully - on a dining table for seasoning, beside a charcuterie board for flakes of sea salt, or repurposed for spices, mustards or small condiments. Despite their age, they sit effortlessly in modern spaces. Truly timeless.
