A PEAR TREE

This eye-catching – and edible – centrepiece of foil-wrapped pears is designed to impress, its organic shapes contrasted with a golden high sheen.

STATELY SCENE

High ceilings and imposing fireplaces call for oversized foliage displays. Here, The White Company demonstrates how to dress an elegant dining table within a grand setting. 

METALLIC MAGIC

This charming oak leaf chair garland is made of thick aluminium foil (from foil roasting trays). Simply cut the foil into leaf shapes and neatly score with veins, then put in the oven on a low temperature to darken, giving them a faded and antique appearance.
