The Christmas gift guide

Antler’s hotly anticipated new eco-friendly range, Fenchurch, spans a collection of travel and lifestyle bags each crafted from recycled post-consumer polyester. The weekender has a sleek, black appearance with a silky finish. Pair this with a booking to your favourite country house hotel and you’ve got the perfect gift.

With its relaxed feel and seasonal colour palette, this worker-style duck-weave jacket from Nudie Jeans is tailored from organic cotton with a corduroy collar. Perfect for city dwellers, it adds protection from a bit of drizzle, without losing its sartorial edge. In short, it’s an easy Christmas present win. 

If you believe that books should be as pleasing to look at as to read, then iconic publishing house Assouline is the place to start buying your tomes. This richly hued second edition set of two hardcover volumes is gorgeous inside and out, and explores the time-honoured tradition of fine jewellery and art objects in India.

We would be hard-pressed to think of anywhere more luxuriously cosy to spend a December weekend than famed country hotel The Newt. This generous hamper is crammed with goodies including cheese, mince pies, cider and much more, all selected from the surrounding areas as a celebration of Somerset.

This delightfully cute quilted vest will not only keep its recipient warm in the winter months, but its pastel colour palette makes it a great transitional piece for early spring, too. We love its flora and fauna print, which is inspired by folk costumes. Style it by layering it over a midi dress or fine knit.

Johnnie Walker Blue Label has partnered with Bang & Olufsen for a luxurious Christmas gift set that includes a 70cl bottle of Scotch whisky and Beoplay EQ adaptive noise-cancelling wireless earphones.
