Poesy Ceramics is the work of Ange, a ceramicist whose practice is rooted in hand-building techniques to create sculptural and functional stoneware that celebrates the beautiful imperfection of the handmade. The name, taken from the French word for a bouquet of flowers or a collection of poems, captures the spirit of the work, a quiet, thoughtful process that turns something simple into something meaningful. Nature is her constant inspiration, with the curve of a leaf, the rise of a wave or the glow of late afternoon light finding their way into every form.

The most interesting rooms of the season weren't decorated, they were collected. New pieces sit along vintage forms, inherited proportions with furniture and textiles that are layer and loved. A collected room is never finished, and it isn't trying to be.

The centrepiece has been demoted. In its place: the salad bouquet, a vase of lettuce or kale arranged stem-down. Little Gem, lola rosa, a wedge of radicchio for colour. Edible flowers are optional, though nobody who has come this far tends to leave them out.

Finding a gift that feels thoughtful, doesn't break the bank and will actually be used is no easy feat. That's where the Glassette Gift List comes in. Each month, we'll be sharing one carefully considered edit, built around the moments that actually matter. No endless scrolling, no panic buying - just the right things, for the right people, at the right time.

August Glassette Gift List

The second in our Where We'd Stay series, where we get the people behind exceptional places to stay to talk us through what they built and why.
This time we're on the Devon-Dorset border, at Glebe House: a late Georgian vicarage turned working farm, sleeping up to 18 across nine bedrooms and a handful of cabins, run by Hugo and Olive Guest as an English answer to the Italian agriturismo. Hugo's family home for decades, it was Emma and Chuck Guest's foodie B&B before Hugo and Olive took it on themselves - leaving their jobs in London with a three-month-old baby, an EU grant, and a plan to grow it from three bedrooms to nine. Six years on, there's a restaurant, a kitchen garden, an on-site bakery and salumi ageing room, a sauna and cold plunge, and a sitting room painted a deep terracotta they call fruit fool.
Olive worked with Studio Alexandra on the main house, then took over the interiors herself as the place expanded - painting furniture gradually over the years, and, more recently, teaching herself mosaic-making on a two-metre kitchen backsplash that had to be built upstairs, dismantled, carried down piece by piece, and rebuilt on the kitchen table (where the family ate around it for a fortnight) before it finally went into one of the cabins.
Each instalment covers one property, question by question - the design decisions, the nearby spots worth knowing about, and the one thing guests always comment on. This time: that you've walked into an old friend's house, and somehow you're still being hosted exceptionally well.

Where We'd Stay

Our weekly Nice Things Edit is a curated Monday round-up of what we’re loving right now. From our favourite pieces on Glassette to a recipe, a watch, a read, a place to visit, a restaurant, and a gift worth bookmarking.
Each week, every member of the Glassette team shares their current favourites, whether that’s new arrivals, pieces we’ve spotted trending, or timeless finds we can’t stop thinking about. Think of it as a weekly dose of joy, discovery, and design inspiration, handpicked by the Glassette team.

Nice Things This Week

Our Monthly What’s On is a curated round-up of the exhibitions, restaurant openings, residencies and gigs we’re making plans for. From gallery shows and design fairs to new tables worth booking, cultural moments to catch, and the under-the-radar events you’ll wish you’d heard about sooner.
Think of it as your cultural compass for the month ahead: a considered edit of art, food, music and design, chosen to inspire weekends well spent.

What's On In August

A good design fair is, quite frankly, priceless. It's these art fairs that shape the year: where new work gets its first outing, where inspiration is found, and where you discover unknown artists who'll forever change your space. Book your hotel early, wear shoes you can stand in for eight hours, and leave a free morning for the IYKYK exhibitions.

Design Fairs Worth Planning a Trip Around

The shell has spent decades being filed under "holiday souvenir" and not much else. That's over. Scalloped edges are turning up on lamps and mirror frames, mantelpieces are swapping their usual ceramics for conch and clam, and entire chandeliers are now being built from them - somewhere between a cabinet of curiosities and a beach house, minus the sand. It helps that the appeal was never really in question: no two shells the same, no improvement required. This isn't a coastal trend so much as good taste finally catching up with something the sea got right first.

The right ceramics change a table entirely. Not in a curated, every-element-considered way - but in the quieter sense that a well-made bowl or a frilled candlestick can make everything around it feel more deliberate.
Whether they taught themselves through grief, channelled two decades of fashion industry expertise into clay, or found their way to a wheel somewhere between a career pivot and a lockdown, Britain's makers share a certain sensibility: handmade but not precious, expressive but not loud. These are the ten makers whose work we keep returning to - and whose pieces are increasingly hard to get hold of once the drops go live.

10 British Ceramicists to Follow

The Devil Wears Prada 2 is finally here, and we're taking the OG characters and imagining the homes they'd live in. So, which one are you?

Devil Wears Prada Characters

This week, we turn to Marie Antoinette and its cinematic splendour for interiors inspiration.
A heroine of excess and escapism, her world is as expressive as her wardrobe - indulgent, playful, and impossibly ornate. Think lacquered pastels, sugared almond hues, and gilded detailing, where every surface feels dressed for the occasion.
Bedrooms become confectionery dreams of silk drapery and powder-soft florals, while tablescapes are layered with porcelain, ribbons, and fruit. There’s a sense of theatricality in every corner.
Bring a touch of Versailles fantasy home with pieces that feel decadent, decorative, and just a little bit undone.

Marie Antoinette Inspired

Spend five minutes with the teams behind Albers and Firangi, as Firangi takes over Albers’ De Beauvoir bistro for a two-week residency that feels less like a collision and more like a natural evolution.
 Rooted in the rhythm of neighbourhood dining but alive with South Asian flavour architecture, the collaboration threads instinctive, produce-led British cooking through Firangi’s playful, expressive lens.
From masala scotch eggs to pork chop with kalu curry congee, the menu moves between memory and experimentation, generous plates designed to be passed around, lingered over, and talked about. We caught up with both sides to discuss shared philosophies of hospitality, the quiet art of balance, and why the best collaborations don’t dilute identity, they deepen it.

London’s Coolest Two-Week Takeover

Most of us want the same thing from our bedrooms: to switch off. But somewhere between laundry piles, over-bright lighting, and well-intentioned styling, calm can quietly slip away. Learning how to create a calm bedroom isn’t about chasing a minimalist ideal or copying a hotel room wholesale. It’s about understanding what helps your nervous system slow down, softer light, fewer decisions, materials that feel good to touch, and then shaping the room around that. Calm isn’t a look. It’s a feeling you notice when you exhale.

Creating a Calm Bedroom

Looking for modern winter hosting ideas that feel relaxed, warm and design-led? This Glassette guide explores the new dinner party - less formal, more comfortable, and genuinely enjoyable. From lighting and table rules to food that works for real life, discover how to host beautifully in winter without stress, performance or perfection.

Guide to Winter Hosting

The secret isn’t more lighting, it’s softer lighting, placed with intention, and switched on before the evening goes grey. Boutique hotels have a particular kind of magic. You walk in and everything feels calm. The sofa looks inviting. The corners are warm. Nobody is being blasted by a ceiling light. Even the air seems better lit. And then you get home and your living room is… fine. Technically. But it doesn’t have that low, flattering glow that makes you want to order olives and speak quietly. It’s either dim and a bit sad, or bright in a way that makes you feel like you should be cleaning. The good news is you don’t need to redesign your living room to get that boutique hotel feeling. You just need to borrow their lighting rules - the ones they’ve been quietly perfecting for years.

Light Like a Hotel

Granny Core is having a moment - and it ties directly into Pinterest’s 2026 trend, Laced Up. A softer, sweeter, slightly nostalgic turn to interiors. Think ruffled lampshades, scalloped edges, embroidery, floral wallpaper and patchwork blankets that look like they’ve been collected over time.
Pinterest is calling it: comfort is cool again, and the look is all about layering - pattern on pattern, texture on texture. It’s cosy, and quietly confident.
