By the power of Grayshott…
We have… well, not the power, as such. But our rooms smell very nice.
Grayshott is a new, small (but-beautifully-formed) lifestyle brand producing rather stylish candles.
While the story begins in India, where, in 1926, on the east coast, stood an allegedly magnificent house called Grayshott. And the family who called that home are, apparently, the people behind the company, using that house’s sense of heritage and iconic art-deco design to shape the new brand.
While the roots are in the last century, Grayshott’s ethos is very much up to date, with a pledge to minimise waste, use sustainable soy wax, and sustainable oils for the fragrances, and ensure that something bought for the home should never be a one-time affair but, instead, offer possibilities to re-use and refill: to that end, candle refills will be available shortly. At the end of the day though, they’ve made Lusso Towers a much nicer place to be and so we’re delighted to add them to the Lusso Gift Guide given just how quickly Christmas is heading this way…
For the full story, and to order, well, you know where to click by now, right?
