Description

Plates, Santa decided, were the most underrated part of any feast. Before the guests arrived at the workshop’s Christmas supper, he packed his basket himself and laid out every dish along the long oak table, humming as he went. The elves were in charge of the roast and the pudding, and they took the job very seriously. But the prettiest plate, the one with the painted holly border, he always saved for the cookies, and nobody dared to argue.

This box shows a Santa basket accompanied by plates, a delightful choice for anyone who loves to entertain or collect beautiful tableware. Set it at the centre of a holiday buffet, on a kitchen hutch among real china, or on a dining room shelf through December. Beneath its hinged lid you can hide a place card, a recipe written very small, or a little thank-you for the cook who never seems to sit down. Set at the cook’s place on Christmas Day, it is a gentle way of saying that all that chopping, stirring and basting has been noticed and appreciated.
