Claire Driscoll (Delmar) , Creative Director of the famed STUDIO CD, shares her most coveted items for the Christmas table...
“Influenced by my recent trip to France and Maison et Objet I’m pulling together tones of olive, green, amber and mustard through linen napkins and glassware. I’ll mix these colours in with light honey toned timber accents in bowls and serving ware to create a casual appeal. Thick stemmed glassware with handmade plateware will add an organic appeal with native florals and ceramic vases to complete the earthy and organic setting for family and friends.
Many of the selected items I’ve picked up on my recent trip will make a feature alongside pieces already found in my home and items I am coveting that will be picked up to complete the setting. ”
