Our designs

La Carafe's own designs bring colour to two very different places: the dining table and the wall. Jugs and clocks can share a retro feel without doing the same job. This selection lets you compare the brand's creations rather than every brand stocked in the shop. Begin with what you need, then consider whether a plain colour or a more noticeable pattern fits the place you have in mind.

A coloured jug for the table you already have

The azure blue jug is a plastic plectrum-shaped model with a stated capacity of 1.3 litres. That gives a practical starting point alongside its colour. Consider the drinks you usually serve and where you put the jug during a meal. A familiar shape does not require a whole new table setting; it can join glasses and plates you already own.

Try thinking in terms of one colour relationship. A jug might echo a detail in a cloth or stand out against plain dishes. It can also remain the only coloured object on the table. For this azure blue plastic reference, the brand states manufacture in France. That statement belongs to the particular model, not to every object carrying La Carafe's name or sharing a retro outline.

Make a separate decision for the wall

A clock needs a place where you can see it as well as enjoy the design. Look at the available wall area and the view from where you normally sit. Consider the contrast between dial and hands, and the patterns already present in the room. The lemon-pattern clock offers a different visual starting point from a single-colour jug.

The brand identifies that clock as an imported product. Its origin should not be inferred from the manufacture of the plastic jug. Read each model's own details for its components, installation and use. Tide clocks are also a separate functional choice: they are not ordinary clocks with a different decorative face. Decide which information you want to read before comparing their appearance.

Coordinate a detail, not the entire room

A colour can travel from table to wall without every piece matching. You could let a patterned clock carry the decoration and keep the dining table simple, or choose a bright jug in an otherwise restrained kitchen. These are ways of imagining the objects together, not fixed sets. For a present, consider whether the recipient has wall space or a dining habit that suits the object.

For other pieces around a meal, visit Table and kitchen. To compare objects elsewhere in the room, explore Home and decor, which includes brands beyond La Carafe. This page stays focused on our own designs, while those wider departments help you find a useful companion without confusing their ranges or origins.
