It will be a more intimate Christmas, dedicated to the closest and truest affections. Perhaps there will not be the usual brunches for the exchange of greetings and the same goes for New Year's Eve. We will inevitably be more focused on ourselves, and this means that preparing and setting up the house for the holidays will be an even more important ritual. Because it will not be a simple make-up, it will not be a mask to wear to make a good impression, on the contrary it will be a work dedicated to us and our loved ones, to those who know us deeply and for this reason deserves to be welcomed in a place with an atmosphere of joy. After all, true elegance is what we reserve for ourselves, in the private life of every day. Here are some ideas to give ourselves and our loved ones a home in which, despite everything, you can breathe a joyful and bright atmosphere.

The sparkling lights

Serie 14 by Bocci

Light is the true symbol of Christmas, for its spiritual meaning of rebirth and hope, but also for its worldly value, because its sparkle gives us a sense of well-being and beauty. And this is precisely the result of Bocci 's  Serie 14 lamp: a glass sphere with an empty cylinder inside that houses the light source. The single element gives a spiritual aspect to the place where it is placed, while a set of several elements generates a magical and exclusive cascade of light. The  Meridian table lamp by  Ferm Living has a completely different style but just as suitable for Christmas, in the gold-colored variant, rechargeable: to work it does not need to be connected to the mains and therefore is a perfect centerpiece, and can also act as a decoration for our library.

The tartan note

Allaperto by Ethimo

The tartan patterned fabric is traditionally linked to Christmas, and an upholstery element in this fabric is a touch of undisputed sophistication. The  Allaperto seat by  Ethimo has retro lines, a wooden structure and a tartan technical fabric upholstery which makes it suitable for outdoor environments as well. We can therefore use it both in our living room and on our terrace, to be enhanced even in winter to take advantage of the precious sunny days and meet our friends outdoors.

The perfect table

Silent Brass by Hering Berlin

Taking care of the table at which we eat is a gesture of dignity and self-care that should not be limited only to the festive period. After all, it is in these days that the desire to set the table in a more elegant way arises in us and to take care of even the small details. The heart of the mise en place is the dish service and in this period the  Costellation d’or collection by  Vista Alegre (on the cover) is perfect, combining traditional gold with blue, a very trendy color for Christmas, less obvious and more discreet than the classics red and green. A very interesting alternative is the Silent Brass collection by Hering Berlin: a layer of ground basalt-based enamel is poured onto the bottom of the plate. The final effect is that of a very elegant brass veil.

The glamorous accessory

Miss Marble by Editions Milano

The accessory is an indispensable detail for those who want to give style and character to the home. And the  Miss Marble collection by  Lorenza Bozzoli for  Editions Milano is an example of how elegance can be expressed in an ironic and cultured way. Bozzoli, in fact, reinterprets the classic preserving jar to give it a glamorous look, thanks to the use of marble, a noble and natural material that is valued here in a never pretentious way.
