Lovely linens are available too in confectionary stripes with contrasting pompom zip pulls – summer in a bag! “Something for animal lovers, scattered amongst the collection are a number of adorable animal-inspired products, purses, pouch bags and jewellery rolls. The products feature cute and cuddly characters, some with a Spring theme – think baby bunnies and fluffy lambs plus a gorgeous appliqued range with a cherry blossom scene.” Stand: 208 Reeves & Reeves, +44 (0)1460 221 630 , reevesandreeves.com Reeves & Reeves continues to work hard to bring you exclusive and stunning sterling silver designs with flashes of stylish gold vermeil, bewitching stones and eye-catching colour, all at very competitive prices.
