Oprah’s favourite housewares gifts

US megastar Oprah Winfrey has revealed her annual list of Favourite Things in the run-up to Christmas. The list is published in the Oprah Magazine and widely publicised in consumer press both in the US and internationally. NBC’s Today Show dubs Oprah ‘the queen of gifting’.

Housewares on this year’s list include the Corkcicle Mug, the Cangshan Thomas Keller Signature Collection Three-Piece TAI Block Set, Ayesha Curry Cast-Iron Enamel Six-Quart Dutch Oven and Sheila Bridges for Glitterville Studios Melamine Plates. Electricals on the list include the Yedi Total Package Air Fryer Oven and The Barista Pro (from Sage in the UK).

At Auteur (UK partner for Corkcicle), marketing associate Kirstie Pendry highlights the growing popularity of Corkcicle’s thermal mugs for gifting: “With more people working from home, the demand for little luxuries at home has grown, and so we’ve seen a demand for the Corkcicle Mug, which keeps your tea and coffee hot at your desk.” She adds: “With a chunky handle, it is great for drinking on the go too, and with its non slip bottom, you needn’t worry about spilling your drink all over your desk either!’
