It was love at first site when we spied this gorgeously grown-up take on a kitsch Christmas essential, the snow globe.

Gone are the plastic penguins and jolly china Santas, a mini Eiffel Tower takes pride of place in Ladurée’s stylish pale pistachio green globe. Adorned with golden charms and pretty pastel-hued macaroons, the quintessentially Parisian landmark is showered in fluttering snowflakes when shaken.

And if you’re a big budget December bride looking for cute Christmas details without the tinsel, place them in the middle of crystal and candle decorated tables for fantastically festive centrepieces.
