ACCESSORIES FOR OUTDOOR PURSUITS FROM THE HANDPICKED COLLECTION
Spring is in the air, nature calls and whether your passion is walking, golf or fishing The Handpicked Collection has a range of fantastic accessories to suit every occasion.
For weekends away the Canvas & Leather Weekender (£95.95) is not only the perfect size but also looks the part – complete the look with a set of Thornback & Peel Hankies (£14.95), printed with delightfully eccentric motifs of pigeons.
For those looking to discover some gorgeous countryside the Walks of Britain Book (£35.95) is illustrated with beautiful watercolours guaranteed to inspire visits to new places whilst keen golfers will love the World Atlas of Golf (£30), which provides the lowdown on the 100 greatest golf courses on the planet and includes tips from golfing insiders and ex-pros.
Golfers and Fishing enthusiasts can make a note of their game and their catch in the dark green mock lizard Noble Macmillan Golfing and Fishing Books (£29.95 each), the ultimate way to remember different rounds, whether the five-iron came in handy or an honest record of the ones that didn’t get away.
Former scouts will remember their motto and ‘Be Prepared’ for every eventuality. The All-Weather Fire Steel (£15.95) will light anything anywhere even if things get wet whilst the revolutionary Coloured Knives (£5.95) remain constantly sharp and are ideal for gutting fish or handy for picnic lunches. The Wine In The Park (£32.95) insulated carrier with plastic glasses, corkscrew and bottle stopper is perfect for refreshment stops and the Wool Picnic Blanket With Leather Carry Strap (£74.95) is just the thing for sitting on or covering up with if it gets chilly.
Notes to editors: The Handpicked Collection is a website and catalogue featuring hidden gems and classic gifts. It differs from other websites in that everything in it has been vetted by an independent, expert panel of journalists, entrepreneurs and trendsetters aimed at giving customers the confidence to shop knowing that they’re getting something special. Each panel member brings their creativity to the collection, and every gift is endorsed with helpful editorial explaining what makes it special, and who it might be most appropriate to give it to.
