As the thought of festivities, celebrations, and indulgence fills the air, we thought we'd go for it with an indulgent and luxurious look to bring a little brilliance to these grey December days.

We've used three particularly decadent patterns from the warehouse - Lombardy, Ulander Turquoise and Belmont - to create a sumptuous tablescape. The gilding is lustrous and the bold turquoise reminds us of icy days.

You could also try some Samarkand, Gold Lace, Venezia, Gossamer or Geneva.

Add a totally OTT gold tablecloth, incorporate some gold flecked handmade paper and add some simple but striking white flower arrangements - and you've got yourself a wonderfully wintry table for holiday entertaining.
