As we get closer to Christmas, particularly if we're hosting family and friends, we might be thinking about what kind of festive decor to embrace this year. Anthropologie is one of the first to launch its Christmas range, collaborating with a famous museum to bring a touch of opulence to your festive setup.
In addition to their usual range of spectacular Christmas decor, Anthropologie has introduced a festive limited-edition collection in collaboration with The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Taking inspiration from and celebrating the Gilded Age of America, this exclusive collaboration captures the essence of an era that was all about lavish celebrations, allowing you to do the same in your own home.
From gold gilded dessert plates to unique handblown wine glasses, the 45-piece collection has everything you need to create an elegant festive tablescape for the hosting season ahead.
The Met x Anthropologie collection is available to pre-order now, with estimated delivery dates of late October into November. Shop our favourite pieces below...
If you're looking for a Christmas tree topper that you can bring out year after year, look no further than this intricately designed gold gilded option.
With space for you to add a long tapered candle (choose a LED version), it will add an elegant touch to any festive display.
Dessert is easily our favourite part of any meal, so why not celebrate that with this beautiful set of four dessert plates? The unfurling lily aesthetic carries into these and will instantly elevate any dining experience.
Serving a cup of tea at the end of dinner just got so much more stylish with this vintage-inspired stoneware teapot. Complete with pretty gold detailing, an iridescent glaze and a scalloped base, this is an elegant piece if ever we've seen one.

We're always on the lookout for interesting glassware and these martini glasses certainly fit the bill. Choose from the golden 'honey' colour or opt for the classic clear glass. Either way, both would add a luxurious touch to any dinner party.
If you're hosting quite a few people this Christmas, imagine bringing out some hors d'oeuvres or snacks on this beautiful stoneware platter. Its iridescent glaze adds a modern touch to the traditional motifs.
Speaking of foliage, just look at these dainty floral picks. A nice alternative to a typical bauble or Christmas decoration, they can be attached to your Christmas tree to add some immediate interest and texture.
Made from a soft velvet accented with golden beads, use the wire tie to wrap it around your tree or festive wreath. They also work equally as well as table decor.
Another item that doesn't need to be saved for Christmastime is this set of golden napkins made from 100 per cent cotton. The foil-stamped florals and border definitely stand out for all the right reasons.
And what would a festive get-together be without a few cocktails? Ideal for shaking up some of your favourite tipples, this shaker is also a lovely gift idea and addition to any bar cart.
