Crafting cosy autumnal dining with Arthur Price

And this season, there’s even more reason to refresh your table. Between 21 September and 12 October, enjoy up to 40% off our beautifully crafted Arthur Price pieces, perfect for creating stunning autumnal tablescapes.

So, pour yourself something warm, settle in and discover how to create a table your guests will want to linger around long after dinner is finished.

Foraging with a flourish

Autumn is one of the loveliest times of year to head outdoors and gather natural materials to decorate your table. Look for fallen leaves, twigs, branches, berries and pinecones to create a wonderfully rustic feel – you can even spray paint your twigs and pinecones to complement your chosen colour scheme.

If foraging isn’t your thing, don’t worry. Artificial foliage and dried flowers can work just as beautifully and have the added benefit of being reusable year after year!

And if you’re looking to create a softer feel, you can combine blush eucalyptus, allium spray and dried bunny tails with delicate stems such as dried limonium and talinum spray.

Choose warm, muted colours

When creating an autumnal table, you don’t have to stick rigidly to traditional oranges and browns, but rather consider the tone and texture.

Warm, muted and slightly faded shades naturally create that cosy autumn feeling. Deep rust, earthy terracotta and warm taupe work beautifully, while muted sage green, soft cream and warm charcoal can create a more understated look.

Celebrate rustic materials

Don’t be afraid to mix materials throughout your table setting. Woven rattan trays, woollen or woven table runners, stoneware serving dishes, vintage-inspired brass candlesticks and wooden chopping boards used as sharing platters can all add warmth and character.

Layering these natural materials alongside beautifully crafted tableware creates a tablescape that feels both elegant and effortlessly relaxed.

And when dinner is over? Keep the cosy atmosphere going. Have a few thick woollen blankets ready for guests to wrap around themselves as conversations continue, candles flicker and the evening evolves.

Make it glow

Few things create an autumnal atmosphere quite like candlelight. Scatter a few candles around your table or group them together in your centrepiece to create a soft, welcoming glow.

As the evening gets darker, the warm light will transform your table and make your dining space feel even more intimate.
