Gifts for the home

There’s no end to gift inspiration in the popular Sostrene Grene store, with so much choice at an affordable price. If mum likes her trips away, Sostrene Grene’s new travel range offers up lots of options for gifts for on the go, or how about treating mum to a new vase for her flowers, or a mug for her favourite brew.
