Carved candle stands

These tall carved candle stands from India were originally bed legs. They are perfect for courtyards, used on outdoor dining tables, or grouped together on the ground. And they are equally stunning inside the home, and can brighten any Christmas or New Year's table. 

Green ginger jars

With a gorgeous green glaze, these vintage Chinese jars were originally used to store ginger. Today, they make the holidays stand out and are ideal for Christmas settings, using them to feature holly or bush plants. One of our most popular pieces, they can freshen up any space.

Chinese ceramic plates

These very special vintage ceramic plates are becoming harder and harder to find. Hand-made and hand-painted, they feature traditional blue and white illustrations from China. They work in every type of home and décor, and are perfect as serving dishes.  

Matt black tofu pots

Coming in various sizes, these vintage matt black tofu pots are from China. Each pot is completely unique, each featuring slight differences in colouring and design. They are as practical as they are beautiful, with so many potential uses and displays in everyday life.
