Tea and Jewellery

I just love this idea. Alex Monroe has designed a new necklace, a rose gold shrimp and come up with a charming method of delivery. During the month of May one can take an Alex Monroe tea at the Goring hotel in London and have the beautiful shrimp necklace delivered to your table in a presentation box. £195 for tea and jewellery. Alex was inspired by memories of his Suffolk coastal childhood running wild over the dunes and taking potted shrimps home for tea. Delightful!
