Like ‘Manscaping’ but with tables. And Mariah Carey. We have the goods. Intrigued? Read on. Gentlepeople, lend me your eyeballs. Don’t worry, I’ll give them back. But for now, it’s time to unpack the Ye Olde practice of setting the table. And when I say ‘Ye Olde’, I mean it. Older than your Grannie’s Grannie. The Ancient Romans and Greeks, to be precise. They were the first to document the enactment of making tables look lovely. They practised it to mark special occasions and showcase opulence by using “plenty of hand-painted pottery, embossed silver and even engraved glass” (Thanks for...
Blend In By Standing Out: Drinkware That Will Add a Little Zazz to Your Daily Liquid Consumption.

Yeah, you read me right: Zazz. With three Z’s. Is it even an Oxford English Dictionary-sanctioned word? Who knows!? Not me, but it just about does a full vibe check for these colourful cups we have for you here at Pulp. Think of them as ‘drip’ (aka cool fashion) for your kitchen. If you don’t know what I mean, GYAT !! (ahem, get your act together). Apologies for the overwhelming Gen Z lexicon; I was having a moment. The earliest known drinking vessels date back to the Upper Paleolithic age (50,000 years ago), known for the emergence of more sophisticated...

Ms Dodd took inspo from the idea of Mother’s Day. In 1910, while hearing a church sermon about the newly coined Day For Mothers, she felt strongly that Fathers - and her Father in particular!- needed recognition. You see, her Dad was a...

When it comes to furnishing one's home, there is literally nothing more satisfying than finding something you never knew you needed but now can’t live without.

Now imagine that you can decorate and consume out of the most beautiful sets. Yes. Happiness. Everyone knows that coffee makes you happy. In Italy, the rise of espresso consumption was associated with industrialization and urbanization in the early 1900s. Nowadays, having an espresso machine is like a little piece...

Ever heard of Anna Jarvis? She is basically the mother of Mother’s Day. An activist who cared for soldiers in the aftermath of the American civil war, she organised women’s groups to promote friendship and health. In 1870, alongside another peace promoter and suffragette, Julia Ward Howe, Jarvis lobbied for a "Mother's Day For Peace" where mothers would ask that their husbands and sons were no longer killed in wars. It called upon mothers of all nationalities to unite to promote the "amicable settlement of international questions, the great and general interests of peace”. Forty years later, in 1907, ‘Mother’s...
