Whether you’re an avid game-goer or more ‘here for the Pimm’s’, play your quintessentially English summer in style this year with the Silver Birch Collection.
Plus, keep reading for recommendations from our community for what to watch, listen to and read to get you in the Wimbledon spirit.
A Winning Serve
We’ve put an Emma Britton spin on the classic strawberries and cream by serving up in beautiful Silver Birch Dessert Bowls. Whilst being elegantly designed, these little bowls are also really robust. Stack for storing and serving a crowd, and wrap in tea towels for taking on a posh picnic.
Don’t forget a tray to serve mid-game snacks and drinks top-ups. Emma’s Hydrangea trays are full of English summer charm (and almost featured the classic Wimbledon colours!).
Coupes or Flutes for the Win
The real tie-breaker. Emma is definitely team Coupe; sophisticated yet definitely fun, coupes make any occasion a celebration! But, if you’re garnishing with a strawberry in true Henman Hill fashion, a flute would be the better choice. The dappled leaves on the Silver Birch flutes look ever so sparkly too when filled with champagne!
Perfect Pimms
Emma’s decorative glass carafes are ideal fridge-size for infusing and keeping cool your summer punch. Then use with a set of stackable tumblers or crystal hiballs for the perfect duo.
We celebrated National Picnic Week last week with a posh picnic of our own. Complete with Pimms from a teapot, no less! All Emma’s glassware (and the new Floral Twist fine bone china) are truly made for using everyday, and there’s no better excuse to get out your favourite serveware than summer. Who says teapots aren’t for cocktails?
