Seasonal items to inspire and refresh your home

Every season, a new collection is released inspired by a National Trust property or outdoor space. Inspiration can come from many areas -  the flora or fauna of an outdoor site, the detail on a wooden panel or a piece of embroidery. Every collection has a story and a heritage, reflecting the diversity of the properties we look after within the National Trust.


The season, the theme is Riverlands. The exclusive prints have taken inspiration from rich foliage-lined river banks, grass wetlands and the buzzing wildlife found in these tranquil places. Through elegant textures, bold hues and intricate details, we celebrate how healthy rivers, streams and wetlands help support the environment and redefine places they run through. The collection also highlights how nature’s waterways nourish and inspire us with their sights and sounds of beauty.

Food and drink treats to take home

If you enjoy a jam, pickle or chutney, then take your pick from the National Trust range available in the shop. Whether you prefer a classic strawberry jam on your scone, or something a bit more unusual like passionfruit curd, you'll find something to appeal to your taste. Or if savoury tickles your tastebuds more, then why not try the pear, orange and ginger chutney with your cheese and crackers? There are plenty of ciders, juices and British wines to accompany your choice.

Mary Wright is a potter based in Sevenoaks who was inspired by the wisteria in Lord Sackville's garden to produce a range of plates, bowls, jugs and vases for Knole.

" Knole has the longest wisteria outside of China growing along one wall in the gardens. This collection is inspired by it, the long tendrils and those wonderful flowers. They seem to appear as if by magic from bare stems, the leaves coming later."
- Mary Wright
