It’s no hidden fact that we both love chairs as well as having a slight obsession with rattan and woven examples.

This gorgeous rattan cane armchair from frenchconnection.com is a statement piece that will keep giving for many years to come.

The resurgence of rattan furniture is great, but for some it never really went away and for this reason it is the right decision to invest in a piece that you will love forever.

Key trend of the season, jewel tones are staying around. An easy and beautiful way to introduce these tones of colour to any room, is with glassware.

Glasses, vases, plates, dishes, bowls, jars – when in beautiful jewel tones, are pieces of art – homeware meant to be on show, displayed, and a great way to bring colour to an interior.

It’s a colour palette that seems to be being embraced across the high street and therefore at a range of prices.

Our favourite idea is to create rich, colourful table settings by combining glassware, plates and vases of different tones. Add highlights of copper or gold (cutlery, candelabras or napkin rings) to finish the look perfectly.
