Drink it Up – One Design Wine Wraps
Wine packaging by One Design, New Zealand
“A great gift to overcome all the global tough times of 2017, to warm one’s hopes in view of a brand new year fueled with positive vibes. One Design’s colourful packaging will ensure that the bottles stand out on the rack.”
– Giulia Leali, Account Manager International Sales and Agent Partners
“There’s rarely been a better time to look like an Edwardian gentleman. Rampley & Co add an artistic twist to the look. Their pocket squares are quite sumptuous – Canaletto’s London above all. Whether a slither of colour poking out from your pocket or extended the full view, it’s quite something. Just hoping my brother’s not reading this before Christmas.” – Toby Hopkins, UK Sales Director
Music to your ears – BBC’s Tippett Symphonies
Sir Michael Tippett, Symphonies Nos 1 & 2. BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra / Martyn Brabbins. Hyperion Records
“Looking for something to start Christmas day on a high note? Look no further! Sir Michael Tippett’s fabulous first two symphonies dating from the middle of the last century really do take the biscuit! This amazing CD from Martyn Brabbins and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra will create a magical mood. Plus the striking cover artwork, ‘Storm’ by Bridgeman Artist
Varpu Kronholm makes this gift particularly alluring and will excite all music lovers!”
– Flora Spens, Account Manager
A work of art – the Bridgeman Folio
The Bridgeman Folio
“Nothing is more special than a work of art – especially limited edition works by Royal Academicians! They are something to treasure, either as a decoration or conversation piece, and something you can keep forever.” – Aretha Campbell, Artists’ Manager

“What better to do during winter than to sit down with a good book or to organise your diary, especially if it’s as beautiful as this one from The Folio Society. The vivid colours and charming illustrations will keep you from putting it down for too long! The diary is available to buy from The Folio Society website and is even free with two or more orders from them.” – John Moelwyn-Hughes, UK Account Manager
