“Christmas” Wooden Box with Fir and Eucalyptus

It starts with a rustic wooden box, packed to the brim with natural fir and sprigs of eucalyptus. The Christmas decorations sit on top of all that greenery; in the photo you can spot red and copper leaves, red and white berries, pine cones (one of them white), the odd red flower, small red decorative bundles and a little figure in a red hat peeping out from the branches.

Very much like it, though never an exact copy. Some things are fixed: the rustic wooden box, the natural fir, the eucalyptus and a natural-style Christmas decoration. Others may vary with what is available on the day: the kinds of greenery, the berries, the flowers, the ornaments and the little figure. In the photo, the colour scheme is red and green with a few copper leaves.

No. This box is natural greenery and ornaments only, with no candles and no fairy lights, so you can put it on any piece of furniture without worrying about flames or cables. If you would like something that glows, our long rustic centrepiece with a candle and LEDs has a candle and LEDs among the branches, and for a big dining table there is also a long centrepiece of ours with a pair of candles and noble fir.

Yes, it is wood with a rustic finish, not cardboard or plastic pretending to be wood. You can barely see it in the photo because the fir covers it, but it holds the whole arrangement together. And it does not end up in the bin: once the branches are gone, it can find another job around the house.

Natural fir dislikes exactly what we crave in winter: heat. Put it in a room that stays fairly cool, with no radiator or fireplace nearby and out of the sun coming through the glass. When the needles start to feel rough and dry, mist them lightly, without wetting the wood. Once the holidays are over, the box doubles as a plant pot or a home for your ornaments.

The “Reindeer” Christmas box is all little figures and white and pink tones; the “Christmas” box feels more like a patch of forest, with different greens, pine cones, reds and wood. Next to our S and L Christmas table centrepieces, or the rectangular one that lights up, this one is low and wide and comes in its own box, so it suits a hallway console just as well as a side table.

You decide the date and time slot yourself before paying. Our deliveries run twice a day on weekdays, 10:00–14:00 and 16:00–20:00, once on Saturdays, 10:00–14:00, and not at all on Sundays. As a guideline, on a quiet day an order placed before 9:00 is normally delivered in the morning, and one placed before 13:00 in the afternoon. December is a different story: the routes fill up early, so it is worth booking the box in advance so you do not miss the day you want. Or call in and pick it up at the shop (Coll d'en Rabassa), very close to the airport.
