The holiday season is rapidly approaching, which means it’s time to stock up on all the festive accoutrements you’ll need for your home, and of course a few fabulous hostess gifts. If you don’t know where to go, try Altfield Gallery. They’ve taken their passion for combining Eastern and Western elements and created a collection of decorative objects d’art, here are a few of our favourite pieces.
Porcelain pagodas
These stunning Blanc de Chine porcelain pagodas add a touch of Asian beauty to any holiday festivity. We’d put them around our table, or arrange them on a book shelf nearby so everyone can admire the fine craftsmanship.
Classic porcelain
These beautiful, traditional-style jars and vases are an elegant ode to Asia, at home in Hong Kong or in a chic New York City apartment. You can fill them with ornaments, fruits or flowers – just make sure to show them off.
Modern Peking glass
Available in festive red and white, these modern vases are perfect for Christmas. They make a great addition to holiday decorations, and you’ll treasure them for years to come.
A silver menagerie
Bring a touch of whimsy to your table setting with these solid silver, hand-crafted animal-form boxes. Lovebirds, ducks, turtles, foo-dogs, and deer — the choices abound. We say get the whole set and use them as place markers for the evening meal! If you can bear to part with them, they make excellent hostess gifts.
Gifts for the host/ess
If you’re looking for the perfect gift for your favourite host or hostess, Altfield’s solid, hand-crafted silver leaves are a beautiful, elegant option. They’re available in a multitude of shapes and sizes, so you are sure to find the perfect one for your friends. The reindeer box is another gift sure to delight, and you know it will be kept as an heirloom.
