Buying Christmas gifts for family and friends is one of my favourite things about this time of the year. Watching David, Harry and Izzy open their presents gives me such pleasure - especially when it’s clear I’ve made the perfect purchase.
But with restrictions likely to be still in place, we certainly won’t be celebrating as we usually do this year and sending gifts to those who can’t be with us, will be the next best option.
Here at Addison Ross we can help make those Christmas gifts special too. All our products are beautifully gift boxed, and senders can add in their own personal gift messages, just to make sure the recipient feels special.
Here we’ve chosen 10 of our favourite gifts. All you have to do is to decide who to send them to!
1. Chiffon Enamel Silver Frame, £28
Our Chiffon Enamel Silver Frames are an Addison Ross classic, and customers come back to them year after year. They work beautifully on their own but are even prettier when grouped together. Our free Print and Fit service means you can also upload your favourite photo when ordering, and we’ll print it, frame it and send it on. An exclusive service just from us.
2. Chiffon & Gold Travel Frame, £35
Traveling may seem like a distant memory but one day it will be possible again, our double frame is a beautiful addition to the suitcase. It holds two 2 x 3 in portrait photos in a chiffon enamel case finished in gold plate, and folds to resemble a purse. A great gift for those university students too, like Izzy, who may like a homely reminder now and again.
3. Tortoiseshell & Silver Silent Alarm Clock, £58
Never has there been a more annoying noise than a loud ticking alarm clock! Just one of the reasons why we now stock these gorgeous desk or bedside round clocks which have a silent sweep movement, rather than a loud tick tock. Send onto someone who likes a peaceful bedtime setting or maybe a teenager who insists they won’t wake up without their mobile phone alarm.
4. Yellow Large Lacquered Scallop Ottoman Tray, £225
We don’t think you can beat our trays on style. Finished with 20 coats of high gloss lacquer, hand polished between each coat, the base is finished in cream velvet. It’s stunning and is ideal for a plate of turkey sandwiches or can just be used to display other beautiful objects. Either way you’ll be sending a gift that will be loved for years to come.
5. Pink Lacquer Jewellery Box with Gold, £48
If you know someone who has lots of beautiful jewellery they’ll certainly need somewhere lovely to store it. The Pink Lacquer Box measures 4x9 inches and features a gold-plated clasp and matching hinges. Fully fitted with sections for earrings, necklaces, rings and bracelets - it’s the ideal storage solution for a stylish friend.
6. Tan & Gold A6 Notebook, £16
Like many of our products this contemporary notebook is packaged in an Addison Ross gift box, making it a special delivery at this time of the year. Ideal for anyone who likes journaling, making lists or just keeping their thoughts in one place. The A6 notebook has a faux leather finish with 100 pages in 80gsm cream coloured paper with lines and a gold edge.
7. Mocha Croc & Silver Frame, £40
Did you know you can add gift messages to your purchases? Why not send our exclusive and unique faux Croc frame – it is absolutely beautiful and very fashionable, a perfect addition to any stylish home or office. I think this soft colouring would look great in a children’s bedroom too.
8. Amalfi White Scented Candle, £26
Hand poured in the UK, every detail has been made to produce a stunning collection of ten exclusive fragrances, contained in three beautiful colours of frosted glass container. The crisp, fresh, clean air of the Amalfi Coast has inspired this wonderful scent. Send to someone who loves top notes of Rose, Bergamot, Mandarin and Pineapple.
9. Powder Blue Enamel & Gold Box, £36
Everyone needs somewhere to keep those small trinkets such as cuff links, jewellery or desk top bits and pieces. Our trinket boxes make for some very stylish storage solutions. Beautifully designed this Powder Blue Enamel hinged box is finished with gold and lined with dove grey velvet. An ideal purchase for the forgetful members of the family!
10. Large Chiffon Grey & Gold Glasses Box, £107
Storing sunglasses or reading glasses in one luxurious place has to beat the nightly hunt for a lost pair somewhere in the living room! This stunning high gloss Chiffon Grey Box features 4 compartments suitable for storing sunglasses or reading glasses. And who doesn’t need one of those?
