I’m starting the week with a break from Christmas-themed posts, as I wanted to share a few photos of this stunning Copenhagen apartment. The home of ceramicist Anne Black and her family, it’s swathed in natural light and dressed in soft, serene colours, creating the perfect backdrop for an extensive collection of art and the many period features.

Styling a winter table | Part 2
