Leaves & Flowers Print Inspiration






Having fallen utterly in love with this Leaves & Flowers print by Rice DK I’m preparing my Summer kitchen and picnic essentials ready for sunny afternoons and lazy Sunday mornings . Cushions and throws for comfort and warmth , melamine pieces to mix and match and piled high with Sunday breakfast. Yum.  Now if only choosing a basket were so simple. 

We’re ready for an all day picnic be it in the garden, down by a trickling brook or in our favourite City park. 

Take a look at our guide to picnics here. Are you a picnic lover too? Tell us your top picnic tips and ideas.

Light Up My Life


Nostalgic and poetic, molecular and architectural, stars, pineapples and baby bunnies. Lighting is a great way to create different areas and separate, subdivide or anchor particular spaces or to accentuate a favourite spot. 

Desk lights and task lights sat upon a stack of book on a side table, used in the home office or as an alternative bedside lamp. Lights for creating a cosy atmospheric reading nook with a big comfy chair.
Sculptural lights that intrigue the eye with their architectural shapes and industrial edge make big impacts in all sizes of rooms; hung low above a side table, central above a kitchen island or taking centre stage in the main room.

Our small but perfectly curated collection of lighting is growing ever bigger as we fall in love with new designs and discover more of the great designers across the globe. The lighting area of the shop has now been given a proud place of its own showing off all the great styles, functionality and beauty of each design.

Take a Seat



For a while Rice DK have been wanting to make some furniture - just a few good pieces. And so, taking years of knowledge, teamed with a passion for great design, a love of colour and an understanding of the fine balance between functionality and beauty a collection of chairs, sofas and poufs has been launched. 
Rice Dk have taken elements of a 300 year old classic, revisited its modernist design of the 50’s and 60’s and reawakened it. Retaining its glamour whilst re-inventing its feel with a timeless twist, Rice are truly showing off their skills of reinvention and colour.
The wing chair has been given a whole new lease of life. Just as Arne Jacobsen created ‘the egg’ for Fritz Hansen (Denmark 1958) or Grant Featherstone’s interpretation of the wing chair in 1951 shapes are so often seen successfully repeated, rehashed, and reborn into something utterly unique belonging to its time and a remaining a classic forever after. 


This Spring collection of a select few colourful pieces with luxurious velvet takes us back to a time where libraries and lady lounges were the thing. An air of Hollywood glamour intertwined with Danish design and Rice’s signature colour contrast needs a round of applause. 

Whether for a feature in a cosy corner, a key element in a main room, a coffee table-come-foot-rest, a splash of colour at the end of the bed, or for draping yourself over in the dressing room as you pour bubbles into the bath. These iconic styles suit every decor and every room. 



Here’s the practical & the good to know bits: 

The pieces are made in Europe – and made to order. We ask that you please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery. We can usually deliver faster but we don't want to make a promise we can’t keep.
The feet of the furniture are made of oak painted with acrylic enamel. The wheels are made of chrome-plated brass. The base of the chair is made of pine wood and chipboard. The stuffing of the chair is VP 25 foam on the backside and arm rests and fiberfill on the seating surface. The textile is microfiber with nano protection.

Stain removal (we know how important this bit is):

When cleaning the fabric, remove the stain as much as possible with a kitchen towel. Use hot water with non-coloured soap and remove the stain by rubbing it in a circular motion with a brush or cloth. Remember to always rub inwards so the stain does not spread.  Wipe off with a clean cloth until it is dry and brush the fabric so the pile rises again. So far we’ve not had a spill we couldn't remove with a damp cloth. 




We hope this is just the beginning of a new adventure for Rice Dk

Welcoming Summer On A Plate








How different the days are when the sun is shining.
We've been taking everything outside, every meal is either on the grass, in the park, al fresco and laid-back as though time has slowed down. Each day is becoming more colourful and weekends are all about finding the perfect outdoor space to fill with friends, family, food, fun and games. We're doing our best to welcome the summer in the way it deserves and making the most of every minute of it. 
With a few firm favourites that we use again and again each summer and some fresh new loves we're celebrating the days in the sun. Here's some of our current favourite food loving finds for rolling out the good times with a little al fresco:


Colourful picnic plates in 6 delicious hues here, birch wood canapé forks here, vinyl lace placemats in 3 assorted colours here




Melamine cups in vintage florals here and melamine bowls here too



treats, nibbles and finger food served in cupcake cases here and here and pretty printed baking trays here, with pretty cocktail sticks for forks and mini skewers


Pretty printed baking trays make the perfect serving dish for single portions, whilst pretty vintage jar covers make great lids for jars of salads, chopped fruit or sauces and dips.



Rectangular melamine plates in pretty prints make great platters. Mix with melamine cups, cake forks , salad spoons, and the rest of the melamine pieces to create colourful settings on the grass or garden table. 


'happy days' barbecue skewers are our new bright favourite (I think we'll need to post some sizzling recipes too) pictured here with the folding metal table in green, chopping boards make great serving platters that'll be easy to pass around



outdoor lights here make summer feel an endless party

We love these Picnic Balls here and here
