With the news of a third (and we hope, final) lockdown, ARCADIA have compiled a list of must-have items to help us bring a new feel to our homes for the year ahead. Many of us discovered a new-found love for our homes in 2020 so why not show them a little love?
Diptyque Electric Wall Diffuser
We thought we couldn’t love Diptyque any more and then they brought out the brand new electric wall diffuser to fill our homes with nine iconic Diptyque scents. Thanks to its compact size and interchangeable electric plugs, it’s also perfect for popping in your suitcase and perfuming your hotel room.

Supporting artisan entrepreneurs across Columbia, the brand is stocked at noneother than the restored historic Cotswold manor and farm, Thyme.
Coniston Drinks Trolley
The drinks trolley has well and truly returned, and rightly so. Neptune’s Coniston Drinks Trolley features a refined black-bronze frame and airy glass shelves to bring cocktails back into the sociable setting of a living or dining room.

Another Neptune must-have is their framed dancer from The Sketch collection – a series of prints by artist Betty Sims-Hilditch. Drawn in ink with a fluid, expressive style, each sketch captures a different figure.
