Hestan Culinary: For the Serious Home Cook this Christmas
Hestan’s CopperBond Induction Copper Cookware is the one for the serious home cook this Christmas. Copper has been a chef’s favourite for generations because it heats quickly and responds almost instantly to changes in temperature, giving far more control at the hob.
At the heart of the Hestan Copperbond cookware is a thick, pure copper core, protected by a five-layer bonded construction that delivers exceptional conductivity. A wraparound stainless-steel base is magnetic, so the pans work beautifully on induction and are suitable for all hobs. Heat spreads evenly throughout each pan, and exact temperatures are reached and held almost immediately, a must for creating memorable dishes this Christmas.
The nonreactive stainless-steel cooking surface is easy to clean and gives the range a sleek, modern look. Whether you are hosting a crowd of twenty or cooking a quiet dinner for two, Hestan makes the work look and feel effortless, creating results that are considered unforgettable. Whether you are a cooking perfectionist who loves precision or a food lover ready to upgrade their kitchen, this cookware is a gift that will be used and admired for years to come. With a lifetime warranty and Italian craftsmanship, it’s an investment piece that justifies the splurge.

Balsam Hill: Bringing Festive Cheer to Your Home
Born from a personal Christmas dilemma, Balsam Hill was founded by Mac after a family member developed an allergy to real Christmas trees. Determined to create an artificial tree without compromising on beauty or authenticity, Mac set out to capture the character and charm of a freshly cut tree.
Today, Balsam Hill trees are designed with nature in mind. By studying real trees and using exclusive True Needle™ technology, each tree recreates the natural colour, texture and unique branch variations of real foliage — creating exceptionally realistic Christmas trees.
Sold at Harrods and online, Balsam Hill trees are available in a choice of true-to-life species, with a range of light types, silhouettes, and sizes to suit every space.
Balsam Hill has also introduced a more considered approach to materials, transitioning to a minimum of 30% GRS-certified post-consumer recycled or 95% plant-based plastic in its True Needle® tips, helping to reduce reliance on virgin, fossil-based resources.
For Luxuria readers seeking a timeless centrepiece, the BH Nordmann Fir is a fantastic choice. One of the UK’s most familiar Christmas trees and the most popular variety across Western Europe, its traditional silhouette makes it a classic that can be enjoyed Christmas after Christmas.
The Nordmann Fir is also available with Balsam Hill’s ingenious Flip Tree™ technology. Designed to make assembly effortless, the tree rolls out of its box, locks into place and simply flips upright, eliminating the need to lift heavy sections.
The Nordmann Fir is also available in lighting options including clear or coloured LED lighting, Twinkly Light Show, Starlight Twinkle LED and Ultrabright.

My Sunday Ski: Give the Gift of Style
There’s something undeniably magical about a winter escape: snow-dusted mountains, twinkling chalet lights, après-ski by the fire and that first fresh snowfall of the season. And if you’re dreaming of a Christmas getaway with a little extra glamour, meet My Sunday Ski, the British-born skiwear brand bringing a festive dose of fashion to the slopes.
Founded by Cassie and Ellie after a chance encounter with a vintage ski suit in Méribel in 2018, My Sunday Ski was born from a simple idea: women shouldn’t have to choose between looking fabulous and feeling ready for the mountain. The result? A collection that combines performance-minded design with head-turning style, taking you effortlessly from first lift to fireside cocktails.
Think statement ski suits, chic layers and luxe finishing touches that make getting dressed for a day in the snow almost as exciting as the skiing itself.
With Christmas just around the corner, a My Sunday Ski piece makes a seriously stylish gift for the snow-loving woman in your life, or a well-deserved treat for yourself.
So, this season, swap the usual winter uniform for something with a little more sparkle. Because when it comes to slope-to-chalet style, My Sunday Ski is ready to sleigh.

Hambledon Wine Estate: Gifts from the Birthplace of English Wine
For a Christmas gift with a story behind it, look to Hambledon Wine Estate. Set on the chalk slopes of the South Downs National Park in Hampshire, Hambledon was founded in 1952 and is widely recognised as the birthplace of English wine. It is England’s oldest commercial vineyard and is now co-owned by Berry Bros. & Rudd and Symington Family Estates.
The English Cuvée, £33 (Waitrose and Sainsbury’s)
New this autumn, The English Cuvée is the estate’s freshest and most approachable sparkling wine yet, made to be opened and enjoyed now. A classic blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier aged for more than 27 months, it brings ripe pear and apricot, a touch of sweet brioche and a smooth, creamy finish. The bottle makes a statement too: chalk-toned with bronze lettering, and embossed with the ox-eye daisies, cornflowers and wild marjoram that grow between Hambledon’s vines. Pour it for a Christmas morning toast or serve it with smoked salmon and roast turkey. It’s a homegrown alternative to Champagne, made for sharing.
The Tasting Table Experience Gift Card, £150 (hambledonvineyard.co.uk)
For the food and wine lover who has everything, give them a day at the estate, just an hour from London. The experience includes a guided tasting of four Hambledon wines, followed by a two-course seasonal set lunch at The Restaurant, overlooking the vineyard. The kitchen is recommended by the MICHELIN Guide and cooks with produce from the estate’s own kitchen garden and from Hampshire suppliers. The card is valid for 12 months from the 26th of December 2026, so it’s a Christmas present that gives them something to look forward to in the new year.

Montegrappa and Lamborghini Unveil Exclusive Miura L.E. Collection
To mark the Miura’s 60th anniversary, Montegrappa, Italy’s oldest writing instrument manufacturer, has created a limited-edition collection inspired by the legendary car’s distinctive design, heritage, and enduring influence. First unveiled in 1966, the Miura is widely recognised as the world’s most beautiful car ever made. A true landmark in automotive history, designed by Marcello Gandini at the famous Bertone design studio, the Miura’s effortless low-slung lines and revolutionary mid-engine V12 layout captivated the world when it debuted in 1966.
The Limited Edition Collection is available in three signature colourways inspired by the car’s original configurations: Fly Yellow, Miura Green, and Black. Montegrappa has taken a bold approach to the new Lamborghini pen’s design, engineering the cap to showcase the Miura’s celebrated front headlight assembly. Crafted from rock crystal and set on an engraved base inspired by the Miura’s distinctive texture, the cap features a miniature pop-up headlight, activated by a tactile push-button mechanism that faithfully recreates the movement of the Miura’s legendary headlights.

Perfum to Perfum: Original, Unisex and Creative Perfumes
For fragrances with an emotive twist this Christmas, look to Art de Parfum, a proudly independent, family-owned, sustainable brand taking a fresh approach to perfumery.
Founded in 2015, Art de Parfum is an innovative fragrance company that places ethics at the heart of its operations. All Art de Parfum fragrances are 100% made in France, are environmentally friendly, and free of materials that add to third-world exploitation.
The brand’s mission is to offer highly original, unisex and creative perfumes that stretch the limits of classical perfumery and communicate powerful emotions in a clean, uncluttered way. Many of the fragrances are directly inspired by creator Ruta Degutyte’s memories. Through the skilled use of specific notes and pairings, she has been able to re-create some of her happiest and most memorable moments.
Art de Parfum’s collection is a personalisation of emotions, the bottling of ideas and notes that customers can relate to, that resonate with them, or excite and challenge them in unexpected, surprising ways. In the same way as art, Art de Parfum’s range of 9 fragrances creates a mood, or triggers an emotional response for each one of us. They are an olfactory journey, where places and memories are recalled with a single spray of perfume.
