Koboku captures the calm of incense drifting softly through the air.
Juniper and lemon bring a clear, fresh opening, warmed by a touch of black pepper. At the heart, rose and geranium blend with gentle spice, cinnamon and pimento, adding depth and softness. As the scent settles, frankincense and labdanum create a smooth resinous warmth, grounded in vetiver, amber, and a hint of vanilla.

BRITISH CRAFTSMANSHIP
A well-made candle is as much about how it burns as how it smells. The relationship between wax, fragrance and wick determines the quality of the flame, the melt of the wax and the way scent is released into a room.
Union of London candles are made in Leicestershire using wide braided cotton wicks, chosen to create a generous, steady flame and an even melt across the glass. Each fragrance is carefully balanced for a clean, consistent burn from first light to last.
It is a simple object, but one where considered materials and small details make all the difference.

A contemporary take on the traditional milking stool, made in solid hardwood with a hand-woven rush seat by Summerfield + Scott in Northamptonshire.
Small in stature but surprisingly useful, its pared-back timber frame is topped with rush harvested and prepared by hand, then woven in the workshop using traditional techniques. Each stool is made individually, with variations in the timber grain, colour and rush weave giving every piece its own character.
Designed to move around the house and find its own purpose — beside the bath, next to a bed, as a footstool or a seat for smaller members of the household. A familiar piece of country furniture, reconsidered for the contemporary home.
