Laura Ashley Christmas Gift Guide: Kettles, Toasters and Gifts by Pattern

Laura Ashley prints turn a kettle or toaster into something people are happy to leave out on the bench — which is exactly what makes them good gifts. This guide groups the range by who you're buying for and by pattern, so you can pick a single piece or build a matching set.

Quick picks

• The crowd-pleaser: the Wild Meadow dome kettle, our best-selling Laura Ashley piece
• The big gift: a matching kettle and toaster set, such as Wild Meadow dome kettle + 4 slice toaster
• For the baker: the China Rose mixer, stick blender and smoothie maker bundle
• Small but special: a canister set or the China Rose kitchen scale
• Not for the kitchen: Laura Ashley Skylark wireless earbuds

Start with the pattern

If they already own a Laura Ashley piece, match it. If not, pick the print that suits their kitchen:

Wild Meadow

Blue, lilac and yellow wildflowers on white: light, pretty and easy to live with. Wild Meadow is our most popular print, with a dome kettle, jug kettle, 4 slice and 2 slice toasters, canisters and a bread bin.

China Rose

Laura Ashley's blue-and-white rose print — the right choice for blue-and-white kitchens and country-style homes. China Rose has the widest range: jug kettle, toasters, two slow cookers, a hand mixer, stick blender, portable blender, scale, canisters and a bread bin. See the whole China Rose range.

The Elveden range

Elveden is a Laura Ashley range rather than a print, in white or blue. It includes the Elveden White kettle, the Elveden Navy kettle, the Elveden Blue & Silver kettle, toasters with defrost and reheat, and matching canisters.

Rosemore

Rosemore is available as a jug kettle and as a jug kettle + 4 slice toaster set.

Gifts by person

For the tea and coffee lover

Start with a kettle. The dome kettles have a temperature gauge on the front, handy for green tea or a plunger, and the jug kettles boil up to 3 litres a minute with a removable scale filter. Add the matching tea, coffee and sugar canisters to finish the bench: Wild Meadow, China Rose, Elveden White or Elveden Navy.

For a new home or first kitchen

A matching kettle and toaster set covers breakfast from day one and costs less than buying the two separately. Choose 4 slices for a family or 2 for a couple — for example China Rose kettle + 4 slice, China Rose kettle + 2 slice or Elveden White kettle + 4 slice. Add a matching bread bin.

For the baker

The China Rose hand mixer has five speeds, beaters and dough hooks. Pair it with the China Rose glass kitchen scale (5 kg, weighs in grams, millilitres, ounces and pounds), or go all in with the Kitchen Essentials bundle: hand mixer, stick blender set and portable smoothie maker.

For the home cook

A slow cooker is a gift that gets used for years — not just in winter. The 3.5 L China Rose slow cooker serves up to about five; the 6.5 L suits bigger families and batch cooking. The stick blender set with chopper and whisk is a smaller gift with plenty of uses.

For someone always on the go

The China Rose portable blender charges by USB and blends a smoothie in a 450 ml cup with a drinking cap. For music and calls, the Skylark wireless earbuds give up to 8 hours of playback (40 hours with the case) in Laura Ashley prints, or try the Wild Meadow wireless earbuds.

Tips for buying

• Match what they have. Each print looks best with its own matching pieces, so check their kitchen first.
• Sets cost less. A matching kettle and toaster set is cheaper than buying the two separately.
• Warranty: Laura Ashley kettles, toasters and slow cookers carry a 2 year warranty.
• Order early for Christmas. Delivery times vary by carrier and stretch out in December, so we can't guarantee delivery before Christmas for last-minute orders. Or choose Pickup at checkout and collect free from our Derrimut warehouse — see how click & collect works.
