Grand Bain French beach towel set

Grand bain
If you wanted to echo the glamour of F. Scott or Zelda Fitzgerald and escape to the French Riveria, surely this Grand Bain French beach towel set would need to make it into your suitcase?

The terry towel captures some of the style of that period of holidaying and is decorated with a Deco-style woman plunging into a pool of water. The towel comes in its own carry bag, so even if you're only heading down to your local swimming pool the glamour can come with you. 

The towel set costs £35.

Buy it from Couverture and the Garbstore

Blaue Blume Tea Service from Undergrowth Designs

Eat me

In terms of crockery for afternoon tea, our favourite meal of the day, we thought we'd seen everything. Oh how wrong we were.

In no way whatsoever is this Blaue Blume Tea Service from Undergrowth Designs just another collection of twee patterned cups & saucers. The plates are adorned with an intricate 1920s lace pattern with a simplistic 'Eat me!' slogan in your choice of black or gold, whilst the cups, teapot and other pieces are finished with a pair of ladies legs. Some of the more eccentric pieces include the sugar bowl, which is designed as an old fashioned rolltop bath, and the petit four stand, which is propped up at the bottom by an antique doll's head. Every piece has been lovingly made and glazed by hand in London. Although it will not be to everyone's taste, this is a truly unique collection that will no doubt cause a stir at your next tea party.

Pieces in the collection start from £12.26. You can see the full range on the Undergrowth Designs website.
