Celebrate Christmas in Downton Abbey-style

6 December 2019 15:40

Class differences, two major wars, a beautiful script and the most beautiful country house you will ever see. Dream along with Downton Abbey. The beloved series is also known for the beneficial Christmas specials, which immediately give a Christmas feeling. And you can also look up that festive atmosphere at home!

Chique English

The special costume drama, which has won numerous prizes, is by Julian Fellowes. The series has six seasons and takes place between 1912 and 1925, in a large, enchanting English country house of format. In addition to the comprehensive, exciting and moving scenario, the interiors, clothing styles and jewelry that can be seen in the series are wonderful to look at. Last September a film was released that is still in the cinema.

More is more

The Christmas specials in the series show how the entire house is decorated with festive items in Art Nouveau and Art Deco influences. A meter-high tree full of lights and atmospheric hangers that adorn an equally beautiful tapestry. Handrails with baubles, furniture with ornaments and on the richly decorated Christmas dinner tables are so many candlesticks that they can hardly be counted. It may be clear: those who want to celebrate Christmas like the Crawleys, make combinations that stand out and go for more.

Dining in style

The style periods that can be seen in Downton Abbey are often found in the products of the Antique Style Web Store. For example, look at jewelry that the players wear in the Christmas specials. With the single-length flapper dresses full of sequins and beads, lush long necklaces can be seen, whether or not combined with matching earrings. On the website you can find many necklaces in this style, such as necklace Nigligée and earrings Chloë. The gentlemen, too, look to cut through a ring with glamorous suits in a sophisticated cut. In 2019 you will find beautiful cufflinks for all occasions, from Christmas dinner to business lunch.
