The Mindful 5

With brighter days ahead, spring promises fresh starts and time for personal renewal. So treat yourself with these gifts – perfect for little seasonal acts of self-love

Spring Silks

A collaboration with couture lingerie designer Carine Gilson – and handmade in Brussels using the finest silk – our kimono and pantaloons set was inspired by the ancient ceramic art of Kintsugi, meaning ‘to join with gold’. Adorned with striking gold lines, the set was made for lazy Sunday lounging, when only the most delicate of fabrics will do.

Succulent Notes

Scents act as instant mood-lifters, and they can help us celebrate seasonal shifts, like the transition from gloomy winter to vibrant, hopeful spring. This new fragrance from Jo Malone London does just that: it’s a zesty awakening, with rose petal notes and succulent pear.

Sipping Pretty

There are few things more satisfying than a first hit of espresso in the morning – and how better to begin your day than sipping from this eye-catching cup and saucer set? Crafted from fine porcelain in Italy, it features vibrant yellow, pink and green, with hand-painted gold trims. Your daily morning ritual just got a little more indulgent. Gold-plated porcelain espresso cups and saucers, £120 for set of two, La DoubleJ

Light It Up

Candles cast a beautiful glow and help us unwind, infusing space with fragrance and calm. We love this scented offering, designed by Luke Edward Hall and inspired by the wonder of Rajasthan’s Rambagh Palace. Expect floral and spicy notes from a delicate pot that, once the wax has melted, will be a beautiful ornament.

Green Fingers

Gardening is therapeutic on many levels. Being around nature can make you feel at peace, while digging, planting and watering are an escape from the stresses of daily life. And these pretty pastel planters from Soho Home are just the thing to help you get green-fingered this spring.
