HAND-BLOWN GLASS LAMP
As we spend more time indoors, creating the right ambience is key to lifting your mood when things seem a little dreary outside. Rosanna Lonsdale’s designer lamps, all made-to-order using hand-blown and hand-painted glass, will perk up any space and come in an array of uplifting designs.

MEDITERRANEAN BATH SALTS
Blended with sun-evaporated Mediterranean sea salt, this handmade Jasmine of Arabia bath soak is infused with nourishing essential oils and minerals like calcium and magnesium. Ready to pop in the bath, the individual bags are encased in a hand-sculpted and glazed ceramic box that takes four days to create using artisanal techniques.

SILK EYE MASK
If you’re a light sleeper, we defy you not to find eye masks completely life-changing. Silk’s really are the best, ensuring your beauty sleep remains uninterrupted thanks to being made of 100% pure mulberry silk, they block out light, don’t slip and help reduce lines caused by frowning in your sleep.

COTTON PYJAMAS
Darker nights call for cosying up inside with a good page-turner and a pair of chic pyjamas. Fashion editor and stylist Barbara McMillan’s classic stripe pyjama brand, Honna London, should be your go-to. Using the softest, ethically-sourced cotton finished with white piping and mother-of-pearl buttons, these will keep you both warm in winter and cool in summer.
