Whether you’re shopping for something specific for your home or simply looking for some decorating inspiration, check out these new home décor and furniture finds from Hong Kong’s furniture stores.
Spring is in the Air!
Celebrate the freshness of Spring with Altfield Gallery’s fabulous Tulipieres. Invented at the height of “tulip mania” in 17th-century Holland, these ornate ceramic vases are composed of stacked layers that hold water, with spouts into which fresh flowers (traditionally tulips) can be fitted to create a dramatic display. Also available in white, Tulipieres work throughout the seasons – summer blossoms, palm leaves or ferns, golden autumn leaves, holly and berries for Christmas – the only limit is your imagination!
Find them in-store at Altfield Gallery, Shop 249, 2/F, Landmark Prince’s, Central. altfield.com.hk
Storage for a Cause
The Hong Kong Sevens is back – from 31 March to 2 April – and RedBox Storage, an official supplier of the tournament, is keen on changing the game. RedBox will be supplying locker rentals at the main entrance of Hong Kong Stadium to help spectators safely store belongings and valuables for the day, and even charge their phone during the event. It’s both a good idea and a good cause, with all the locker proceeds going to the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation.
