Gold Leaf Tough Touch garden gloves are made from deer grain leather. They are very hard wearing, but the leather stays soft even after it has got wet. Black suede gauntlets shield the wrists and forearms.

Through its unique design, the TOUGH TOUCH gardening glove offers a high level of protection against thorns and alike, whilst retaining an incredible soft feel which results in very unusual dexterity for a glove so robust as this. This glove also offers exceptional comfort and warmth, with the added benefit of the gold grain leather being specially treated to offer resistance to water. An extended cuff which affords additional protection for the wrist and forearm adds to the overall appeal of this, quite superb gardening glove.

Sturdy enough to be used outside or in.

Barometers measures the atmospheric pressure which changes with different weather patterns. This movement in atmospheric pressure happens prior to us seeing the actual physical change in the weather and therefore allows you to forecast the weather.

Simply mark the current air pressure with the moveable needle on the front glass and observe the change in the needle below on the dial. An increase signals fine weather, a decrease signals bad weather and so on.

Suitable for conservatories, garden rooms or covered sheltered areas in the garden.

This firesteel makes lighting fires or gas BBQs easy in any weather. Originally developed for the Swedish Department of Defence, its dependability makes it ideal for gardeners or those that undertake camping/fishing trips as it works equally well when wet. Much more reliable than rubbing two Girl Guides together (and nearly as much fun! Ed. Jnr).
With a sturdy oak handle it is the perfect fire-starter for the Sunday afternoon patio party.
It can be used to light campfires, gas BBQ’s and start off the garden bonfire without the need to traipse indoors for the matches. For some kindling why not use the all natural MayaDust to light your BBQ with ease.
What better way to light your fire…

Cleverly designed so that the glasses stack in the neck of the carafe. Thus you can carry the carafe and glasses in one hand, leaving the other hand free to bring food or cutlery to the table. Formidable!

This zinc and glass rainfall is an easy way to measure the rainfall in the garden.

It is a lovely gift for keen gardeners who wish to keep an eye on the amount of rain in their garden or for interested children and budding meteorologists.
