A romantic homage to the simple joys of Christmas, the Holly and Ivy pattern draws its inspiration from a popular 17th century Yuletide carol: "The Holly and the Ivy, when they are both full grown, of all trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown." Hand-painted renderings of both plants, brimming with vibrant berries and rich green leaves, decorate each piece's gleaming white glaze. The carol's lyrics accompany the images in charming, old-fashioned script, while garlands of ivy curve around the edges, rims, and feet for an abundant finish. This elegantly shaped covered vegetable bowl offers a graceful presence at the table while it keeps roasted yams or garlic green beans warm. Its round body sits on a simple pedestal and hosts swooping handles on each side, while a domed lid fits snugly on top with a matching handle. Made of naturally durable stoneware, the Holly and Ivy tableware and accessories are safe in the freezer, microwave, dishwasher, and oven. The pattern also coordinates with the Botanic Garden collection for a year-round, garden-fresh home. --Kara Karll
