Spring is here, which means summer is coming, and after spending the last year in intermittent lockdowns we’ve never been more ready for sunshine.

In the spirit of summer, interior brands are capturing the charisma of long, warm days with brightly-coloured, fruit-inspired designs.

From Petra Palumbo’s painted lemon jug to For Saint Clement’s dried orange cake stands, fruit influences seem to be everywhere.

One of the most fun manifestations of this trend, though, has to be Wonky Picnic’s strawberry-painted ceramics and these adorable crocheted oranges. In fact, Wonky Picnic produces a whole range of crocheted fruit including bunches of grapes and bananas.

We recommend positioning them in a real fruit bowl to give your worktops an everlasting pop of colour.
