The kitchen: the place where we slowly shed the remnants of sleep over steaming hot coffee and dippy eggs with soldiers. Adorn the heart of your home, and put nature on display, with this 6-hole egg holder from the Apple Farm collection.

It’s made of smooth, cream ceramic that stays cool to keep your eggs fresh and protected while on display. The green striped, watercolour base has been hand-painted, so no egg holder is identical to another. Use it to keep eggs at hand for glazing rich, hearty pies for dinner, whisking into meringues for sumptuous Eton messes or frying up for cooked breakfasts on Sunday mornings.

Add to the country farmhouse look with other pieces from the Apple Farm collection, including butter dishes, milk jugs, tea pots, mugs and tea towels. All with a coordinating green base and some decorated with beautiful farm animals.
