What\u2019s\nbetter than a thoughtful and stylish Christmas gift? A thoughtful and stylish\nChristmas gift that gives back! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today I\u2019m\nsharing a small selection of my favourite charitable products and companies in\nthe world of interior design. These gifts are guaranteed to be loved by the\nreceiver but they also benefit those less fortunate, which is what Christmas is\nall about!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is by\nno means an exhaustive list, but I hope it will provide you with plenty of\ninspiration to find even more charitable gifts this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walter\nTable Centre, Ishkar<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ishkar is an online concept store selling a wide range of\nbeautiful goods.

The\ngeometric table centrepiece pictured above is made for Ishkar by Mostafa, a\ncraftsman based in Afghanistan. It\u2019s beautiful and<\/em> functional, because plates and dishes can be set upon it. The\ndesign is modular so you can buy multiples and create a unique centrepiece\nevery time you host.

Peony\n& Moss Candle, Jo Malone<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Jo Malone candle always goes down well with lovers of\nluxurious scent. This special peony and moss charity candle smells good, looks\ngood and<\/em> does good.  Approximately75% of the RRP from each candle sold is donated to charities that\nsupport individuals and families with mental health problems. Jo Malone charity\ncandles tend to sell out quickly, so if you know someone who would love this\ngift, buy soon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
