Feldspars Cobalt dinner plates and the Cobalt cake plates are the perfect additions to your dining table this Easter.

Organic Wine from Tillingham
When it comes to wine, we are very passionate about local and natural wine. One of our favourite UK based wineries is Tillingham Wines, who are in East Sussex. Tillingham is set amongst 70 acres of rolling hills and woodlands with a variation of fruit trees, ancient woods, and roaming livestock amongst the vineyard – amazing biodiversity! Their philosophy is all about using ancient traditions and farming in conjunction with biodynamics to keep soils as healthy as possible. All their wines are absolutely amazing and truly unique. For a special treat, grab a bottle of their Traditional Method 2018, which is a gentle sparkling with notes of melon and citrus – a true crowd-pleaser.
Climate Positive Gin from Sapling
Made exclusively in the UK, Sapling use local ingredients to reduce transport emissions. Sapling’s spirits are clean, creamy, and smooth with a touch of sweetness, their gin is a climate positive London dry gin that is bold on the juniper, refreshingly zesty, with hints of rosemary for a herbaceous finish. We love using Sapling Gin as an alternative to wine this Easter, why not create one of Sapling’s zero waste cocktails for those gatherings that require a little more impressing!
Petalon Flowers
Finally to spruce up an Easter table, we are using Petalon flowers – beautiful seasonal, homegrown flowers grown from their regenerative flower farm in Cornwall, UK.
