If you're a regular visitor to YourHomeStyle, you'll know we absolutely love Emma Bridgewater! The brand's distinctive, colourful ceramics have a quintessentially English sensibility which makes them the perfect accessory if you're trying to give your home a traditional cottage vibe. Plus, they're just fun!
So we were very excited to learn that Emma Bridgewater has just released its latest collection, an autumn-themed collection of mugs, crockery and kitchen sundries that have got us longing for those cosy long evenings. There's even a range of Halloween items, although in classic Emma B. style, they're definitely more cute than spooky.
Read on for our absolute must-haves from the new autumn range! And don't forget to check out our highlights from the spring and summer collections, too.
Emma Bridgewater autumn 2o21: our favourites from the collection
Oak 10 1/2 Inch Plate
The oak has long been a symbol of the ancient majesty of the English countryside, so it makes for an inspiring natural motif for Emma Bridgewater's new Oak collection. This dinner plate looks beautiful wreathed in hand-painted green foliage, with a few budding acorns thrown in for good measure. Imagine it piled high with scones slathered in blackberry jam - we know we are!
Keep It Creepy 1/2 Pint Mug
Even if real-life bugs give you the heebie jeebies, you've got to admit that this colourful parade of insects and snails on a lovely watercolour-look blue backdrop makes for an extremely cute mug. Plus, in Emma Bridgewater's trademark half-pint size, you'll be able to fill it with a generous amount of tea, coffee or even a spooky witches brew for Halloween festivities!
Autumn Crocus 1 1/2 Pint Jug
This jug's crocus design perfectly captures those muted but beautiful shades which fill the woods and hedgerows in early autumn, with the soft purple of the crocus mingling with the yellow and brown of falling foliage. With a capacity of 1.5 pints, it's the ideal size for table water jug.
Halloween Extra Large Rectangular Tin
The perfect container for all your Halloween goodies, this pumpkin-themed tin is definitely cute enough to use all year round. Measuring 21.2 x 29.6cm, there's plenty of space within for biscuits, sweets or some spooky cake pops.
Wild Mushrooms 8 1/2 Inch Plate
In the autumn months, wild mushrooms are a forager's delight - so long as you know what you're doing! If you'd rather play it safe, why not bring the wild mushrooms motif into your home with this delicately-painted ceramic plate? With its bright abundance of fungi, it would definitely make a cute serving plate for a portion of warming mushroom risotto!
Halloween Toast Good Magic Cocoa Mug
We don't know about you, but a 'large dose of good magic' is definitely how we feel about our morning coffee! On the reverse, you'll find a witchy 'eye of newt' design, while the inside reads 'magic, magic, magic', all in warm autumnal orange. We love the tapered design, great for keeping your hot chocolate, cocoa or cheeky hot toddy warm for longer.
