★★★★★ M.
Candles dedicated to the throat chakra - resonating with the color blue. They contain sodalite - a natural stone that promotes better communication, courage in expressing one's own opinion, and greater creativity. For me, a big plus is that the candle is made from natural soy wax, and thanks to the…

★★★★★ A.Retro
I like these lamps, they're fairly priced and don't appear to be in the daytime, but in the evening they come to life, with a lovely warm retro look and feeling.I would have preferred them to come with a switch set to their lowest light setting, or the gradient of brightness to start at its highest…

Love these. I took them on holiday with me and they came in very handy. They are light and the little packs are small enough to fit easily in your bag.

★★★★★ C.White sage and peppermint sage stick
Nicely presented and well made, the sage was easy to use - though I was glad to see some brief instructions on the box too as someone trying this for the first time. It did take a little while to light and only burned for a short while but it was long enough to give the room a pleasant and relaxing…

About this product
What it is
The turquoise is painted rather than stained, giving the surface a flat, chalky quality that softens the grain beneath. The colour sits somewhere between teal and duck-egg, calm against natural linen or warm against terracotta. Albasia is a light, fast-growing timber, noticeably lighter in the hand than oak or teak, with a close, even grain that takes paint cleanly.
How it works in a room
- As a bedside surface: low enough to reach from the floor, steady enough for a glass of water and a lamp.
- As a plant throne: the colour reads well under trailing greenery, and the flat top suits a medium pot without wobbling.
- As a hallway object: a single stool in a corner gives a narrow entrance somewhere to drop keys or a small tray.
- The turquoise holds its own as a colour accent, it does not need to be hidden or styled around.
The wood and finish
Albasia (also known as falcata or Paraserianthes falcataria) is grown widely across Indonesia and the wider South-East Asian archipelago. It is a plantation timber, fast-growing and relatively light, which makes it practical for furniture that needs to be moved around. The painted finish seals the surface and gives it a consistent colour across the piece, though the underlying grain remains faintly visible on closer inspection.
Craft and origin
The stool comes from Indonesia, a country with a long tradition of small-scale wood furniture making, particularly across Java and Bali. Low stools and side tables of this kind are a common domestic form across South-East Asia, used as much for display and storage as for seating. The form here is simple and geometric, four legs, a flat top, no carving or decorative detail, which gives it a versatility that more ornate pieces lack.
Living with painted wood
Wipe with a dry or barely damp cloth. Avoid leaving wet glasses directly on the surface for long periods, as painted wood can mark with prolonged moisture. Keep away from direct heat sources, which can cause the timber to dry and the paint to lift at edges over time. The piece arrives ready to use, with no assembly required.
Size and weight
The stool weighs 6.5 kg, solid and stable without being heavy to move.
A considered gift
It suits someone setting up a first home, a plant enthusiast looking for a display surface, or anyone who likes a piece of furniture that can shift roles as a room changes. The colour makes it feel considered rather than generic.
