Q I am looking for a blue patterned design for crockery for my daughter's wedding - a bit like the Willow pattern but with a bit of a twist.

Any ideas?

A Even in very modern interiors I love that touch of tradition. Try Oka's Kraakware crockery - a near copy of Ming and Qing period pottery. Each piece is hand painted with a blue underglaze - it is stunning.

Prices start at £11 and it's a good idea to buy larger pieces and use plain white crockery to coordinate until you build up the collection. Order on 0844 815 7380 or at www.okadirect.com
