INTERIORS: Conran at Waterford
Jasper Conran’s new crystal ranges for Waterford Crystal are the perfect way to add a touch of sparkle to your festive table.
The elegant double cuts in the Brilliance range (left) look gorgeous and also cleverly increase the light reflection. The contemporary Eternal range, meanwhile, features a combination of double-edge bands and pin-stripe cuts.
Choose from wine glasses, champagne flutes and tumblers as well as centre pieces such as vases and bowls – and they all make special festive gifts too…

We’re quite taken with this quirky Butterfly Wall Clock, £109.99 (position the butterflies where you want them), but also love the sleek white cuboid TV units with seamless push-and-click doors and clever Bathmag magazine and toilet roll holder.
Their collection – which includes designer names such as Karim Rashid, Black + Blum and Joseph Joseph – also have great lighting and kitchen accessories, plus bigger pieces including beds, dining furniture, armchairs and stylish floating bookshelves.
