A set of six Blue Italian Pastry Forks, beautifully gift-boxed, makes a thoughtful companion piece, adding heritage flair to every slice of Christmas cake. And no festive spread would be complete without the Christmas Tree Sandwich Tray, a joyful serving piece that instantly adds Yuletide cheer.
Gifts for the Christmas Super-Fan
