The Best Fruit and Vegetable Homeware That'll Leave You Hungry For More
Image by: Bordallo Pinheiro
From lemon jugs to cabbage leaf plates – the farmer's market has never looked so chic. Discover our edit of the best fruit and vegetable homeware to buy now.
Forget minimalism; maximalism has ripened—and this season, interiors have taken inspiration directly from the farmer’s market. Spotted cropping up everywhere from Zara Home and M&S to H&M, fruit and vegetable-inspired homeware is the deliciously kitsch yet surprisingly chic trend your home didn’t know it needed.
A delightful throwback to the kind of cheerful kitchen styles you might vaguely recollect from childhood visits to your grandparents’ house, quirky cabbage-leaf crockery is cropping up alongside ceramics inspired by ripe tomatoes, and linens adorned with leafy greens and citrus slices. But these retro styles are no longer confined to countertops, instead this foodie trend spills joyfully into every room.Think of it as cottagecore’s grown-up cousin: vibrant enough to spark conversation at dinner parties yet refined enough to feel at home alongside your favourite mid-century furniture.
Hungry for more? Whether you sprinkle it sparingly or embrace your full visual ‘five-a-day’, getting your intake has never been easier. We've rounded up just a few of our fruity homeware favourites - alongside some best in show veg, of course - that shows great style really can grow on trees. Dig in.
