Eastern chic: Chinese inspired kitchenware to celebrate the Year of the Sheep
Amira Hashish13 February 2015

The Year of the Sheep is almost upon us; celebrate in style with Chinese inspired kitchenware.

WHAT TO BUY

Celebrate Chinese New Year in style by picking key pieces for your kitchen. A non-stick spun steel wok from George Home is a bargain at £5 (asda.com) or spend £90 for a swish stainless steel electric option (debenhams.com).

A Come Dine with me party wok set may be a fun purchase (£44, very.co.uk). Breveille’s rice cooker and steamer (£39.99, argos.co.uk) could also come in handy.

Head to John Lewis for oriental bowls in blue/red (£25 for four), an oriental teapot (£30) and bamboo tray (£12).

Wedgwood’s Butterfly Bloom large teapot (£95, harrods.com) adds a hint of glamour. There are matching Chinoiserie cup and saucer sets (£99, johnlewis.com).

Orchid specialises in oriental inspired homeware and a ceramic barrel stool (£172.50, orchidfurniture.co.uk) may make a sweet addition to a kitchen space.

Oka stocks a Zian waste paper bin (£75) or a Pagoda cascading flower pot (£115) for a planter design with a difference.
