The best luxury hampers to splurge on this Christmas

There's something so special about cracking open a wicker hamper...🎁

By

We don't know many people who don't love receiving a Christmas hamper, right? There's just something so special about opening up that gorgeous wicker basket and seeing what treats lay inside for you to enjoy. Luxury hampers are wonderful gifts for any large groups, families or even couples. They're also great corporate gifts, if you're looking to treat your colleagues or external partners with a thoughtful Christmas present this year.

The traditional Christmas hamper first started out filled with food, and this tradition still continues. With a host of luxury retailers including Harrods, Selfridges, Fortnum & Mason and many more offering a selection of Christmas food hampers every year, it's no wonder that luxury hampers have now become in high demand.

However, we've also seen a rise in beauty brands taking their chances on luxury beauty hampers too. Some of our favourites this year include The White Company's iconic Winter hamper, as well as Cowshed's sleep ritual hamper, promising someone a perfect night sleep this Christmas. Or if you have a teenager in your life or a young woman, she may recognise the brand Sol de Janeiro. This popular skincare brand now have their very own hamper in Harvey Nichols - and we're predicting it well be a sell-out before December even arrives!

Equally if you know someone who loves a sweet or savoury treat, we selected a host of cheese and wine hampers, as well as Hotel Chocolat's dreamy velvetiser hamper and their best-loved chocolate hamper too.
