"Carried down to the garden"

There's a whole seabed painted across this bowl: a russet-red lobster stretched at its centre, fronds of coral reaching outward, a scuttling crab and a darting fish caught mid-swim. It's the kind of piece that turns a simple bowl of salad or new potatoes into the talking point of the table.

Made from melamine, it's built for the way summer actually unfolds - carried out to the garden, set down on a sun-warmed table, passed around a long lunch without a second thought. Lightweight and shatterproof, it shrugs off the knocks that would worry fine china, so it's as happy at a coastal picnic as it is at a celebratory spread.

For anyone who likes their table to feel like an occasion, this is the bowl that brings the seaside home. Available year after year, season after season.
