The Persephone Post has mentioned Ben Pentreath before, because his shop is round the corner in Rugby Street and we often send people there, telling them, rather gushingly that his is the best shop ever. Now it's the weekend-away season, present-finding time is upon us and this shop can always be relied on. There is something magical about pink lustreware – any kitchen is transformed (on the daffodil-in-a-milkbottle principle ie. a depressing room is always improved if you tidy up and have some flowers in any kind of vase) by a beautiful jug with flowers. At this time of year, in England, it would be roses. This jug is £35, although I am not going to risk it on the train to Cornwall.
