The Dining Room
The Dining Room is arranged for the kind of meal that carries on beyond the table—relaxed country-house dining layered with ticking stripe, smoky glass, natural marble, candlelight and softer pools of after-dinner light.
Discover table linens, glassware, marble serving pieces, candles, lamp bases and handmade lampshades brought together for everyday suppers and evenings worth lingering over.
Set The Table
Begin with the quieter layers — soft ticking stripe, natural tones and simple textiles that create an easy foundation for everything that follows.
Marble at the Table
Natural stone, softly veined and individually marked — serving pieces and candlelight designed to work together or move easily into other rooms around the Estate.
A Statement for the Dining Room
An ornate antique-grey mirror selected to sit above a mantel or sideboard, bringing scale, reflected candlelight and a little faded grandeur to the room.
The Ornate Antique Grey Mirror will be joining the Estate shortly. Send us a note and we will let you know when it becomes available.
By Candlelight
Vary the height, soften the table and allow the room to change as evening settles in—from whitewashed candle stands and scalloped pillars to glass glow jars and marble hurricane light.
Bring in the Green
Easy greenery for tables, dressers and beams — layer it loosely, build texture or keep things simple with one soft trailing garland.
Pheasants in the Dining Room
Familiar countryside forms reimagined in chalk white — characterful decorative pieces for the table, mantel or sideboard.
Why Deep Velvet in the Dining Room?
Deep velvet works beautifully in a dining room because it absorbs light rather than reflecting it harshly, giving lampshades a richer, softer presence once the room is lit.
Our Deep Navy Venetian Velvet is particularly effective in the evening. Against pale lamp bases, marble and candlelight, the darker shade helps create a more intimate atmosphere — ideal for later suppers, drinks after dinner and rooms that feel warmer once daylight begins to fade.

The Pewter Shepherd’s Fleece
A deep charcoal-grey long-wool fleece selected for the quieter end of the evening.
Drape Pewter over a dining chair, settle it across a bench or use it to soften an adjoining sitting corner. Its darker colouring sits beautifully alongside Deep Navy velvet, pale marble, candlelight and antique timber.
Available as a single fleece, pair, Estate Trio or House Collection of Five.
