Celebrate the traditions of the British countryside with the Lady Clare Gilroy Country Sports Coasters. This handsome boxed set of six features six different country sporting designs, beautifully presented against a rich Bottle Green painted background and finished with elegant hand-gilded edges.
Country sports have been woven into British rural life for centuries, particularly among the great estates and country houses of England, Scotland and Wales. Hunting, shooting, fishing and equestrian pursuits became not only sporting traditions but also favorite subjects for British artists and illustrators.
Sporting paintings and prints depicting horses, dogs, game birds, anglers and scenes from the countryside became an important part of classic English Country House décor. The Gilroy Country Sports Collection captures the character and atmosphere of this enduring British sporting tradition.
The set includes six different designs, creating an attractive variety of sporting scenes for the table. The artwork is complemented by a traditional Bottle Green painted background, while the hand-gilded edges provide the elegant finishing touch associated with Lady Clare’s Traditional Collection.
Since 1932, Lady Clare has been known for creating fine English lacquered placemats, coasters and decorative home accessories. Made in Great Britain, these Gilroy Country Sports Coasters combine classic sporting imagery with the traditional craftsmanship for which Lady Clare is renowned.
The hard-wearing lacquered surface is heat resistant to 150°C (300°F), making the coasters both decorative and practical. Lady Clare’s distinctive curved edges help reduce damage during use and prolong the life of the coasters, while the soft green flock backing helps protect the furniture beneath.
Measuring approximately 4.25 × 3.5 inches, they are ideal for whisky glasses, cocktails, wine, coffee, tea and everyday drinks.
Their traditional sporting character makes the Lady Clare Gilroy Country Sports Coasters particularly attractive in an English Country House, sporting lodge, country cottage, library, study, home bar or equestrian-inspired interior.
Presented in a gift box, they make a distinctive gift for a country sports enthusiast, sportsman, shooting or fishing enthusiast, equestrian lover, or anyone who appreciates British sporting art and traditional English country style.
Pair them with coordinating Lady Clare Gilroy Country Sports Continental Placemats, Small Placemats and Tablemats to create a handsome table setting inspired by the traditions of the British countryside.
