Bone China T Light Sea Urchin - DG1959

Well, we sell real sputnik sea urchins, alfonso sea urchins and many more... so when we came across these real bone china sea urchin t-lights and admired not only the seaside "glow" but also the size and beachy look of these, we knew we had to sell them. You just need to take the top off and place  a t-light inside in the little dish. It will out-shine any real sputnik sea urchin in its vicinity. These nautical t lights stand an impressive 9 cms high and 9 cms in diameter and make for a pretty marine decoration.

Wooden Life Buoy -  DGNS10 

Our suppliers came to us and said they had developed a great looking door stop with rustic colours and a curious number to face outwards on the living room carpet. They're very nice, and the colours are superb but we think they have many uses. They hang nicely, they display superbly on work surfaces and in a fit of pique they could be hurled accurately at the one you love - smashing nautical decor.

Wooden Ship's Wheel - DG7335

Heard the one about the pirate who walks in to a bar with a wooden ship's wheel attached to the front of his trousers? The barman says to the pirate..."What's the ship's wheel for?" and the pirate replies "I haven't got a clue but it's driving me nuts". Well we have now decided to sell these at Dorset Gifts just so that you can break the ice, crack the joke and not get a laugh too. These ship's wheels are a substantial 62 centimetres in circumference and don't come polished like our others but with a natural rustic look. Great as nautical wall decor and a must if you are looking for nautical design ideas but not recommended as a spare on your boat! These ships wheels are for decorative purposes only!

Wooden Ship's Propellor - DG7536

Another interesting nautically themed line, a rustic brown coloured wooden ship's propellor which sells well alongside our wooden ship's wheel.

As with our nautical ship's wheel we recommend this is only used for decorative purposes and never to propel a boat... not even in the direst of circumstances, thousands of miles from land in a tropical storm. If your boat develops a propellor fault please may we refer you to your motorboating handbook and the RNLI "Things to do When..." leaflet. Please leave this on the wall. A very popular addition to the decor of nautical themed pubs and restaurants or any nautical interior.

Mopani Wood

One kilo mopani pieces are about 30 cms long

Real mopani (or mopane) driftwood originates from the northern parts of Southern Africa and is found nowhere else in the world. It is one of Africa's heaviest timbers and is sometimes even used for building houses, but here in the UK the wood is increasingly being used for interior and exterior decorative reasons as drfitwood decor.

Over the last year we have had more and more enquiries from interior designers and even other retailers to buy mopani wood for display and "stand alone" decor. This is a completely natural product and no two pieces are the same. They do of course vary in size and a smaller piece measuring several inches is likely to weigh around a kilo. Large pieces, like the images shown are likely to weigh six or seven kilos and can be up to 20 to 24 inches in height and 18 inches in diameter.

For larger orders our prices will be below wholesale and the most competitive in the UK. Contact us with your requirements.

We hand pick the very best from large stock quantities but if there are particularly shapes you think you require please add a note in the shopping cart check out. The outdoor images are of a perfect piece which can be used as a feature in any room of the home and which jewellers and other corporate buyers have been buying for display purposes.

Please enter the weight you require below but bear in mind the smallest pieces will weigh about a kilo and be several inches long.

Oh and by the way... the nautical connection is tropical fish, because they absolutely love this stuff in their fish tanks (without the jewellery or Rolex watches though). Mopani wood for aquariums direct from Dorset Gifts!

£6.99 per kilo

Lighthouse Door Stop

Beautiful to look at in any home or any room. We did intend to photograph these by a nice oak door to show them in their intended workplace but the sun was shining on Poole Quay and what better than natural light to show their true colours! These popular lighthouse door stops have been made with care in a bright cotton fabric with a heavily weighted base and therefore make a beautiful nautical feature propped up against any door in your home. They're about 25 centimetres high and are available in the mainly red or mainly blue design.

Approximately 25cm high

Willow Heart - DG633022

We deliberated about where to put this on the Dorset Gifts site. We have always sold driftwood but occasionally for nautically themed events we get asked for willow wood. When we came across these handpainted solid willow hearts we knew these would suit a variety of uses. The white ribbon is tied to a circular piece of wood which can be used to hang directly but the ribbon helps you adjust height and these are perfect for decorations around the home or themed events use. We have these also in larger sizes and for bulk purchases please ask for a quote.

Sailaway Nautical Bunting - DG6515

It took me half my life to work out what bunting actually was. I always knew it was a certain attacking move in American baseball and something to do with rabbits but never knew just how popular and pretty nautical bunting could be! Not easy to take photos of though so we apologise for the images but feel displayed this way you get a better feel for the detail of the seaside themed polyester flags which measure 18 cms in depth along a length of approximately 260 centimetres. This nautical bunting will add a generously sized dash of decoration to a nautical home, sea themed occasion, beach side wedding or anywhere where nautical decor is called for. Please e mail us for new styles which we are sourcing and selling in our shop. We won’t be beaten on price either for bulk orders of bunting. Just request a quote.

Nautical Rope

We’re always getting asked for it so we have sourced it, nautical rope - a whopping 20 metres long and about 2 cms in width. We decided to buy colours that made for nautical “chic” and nautical “interesting” rather than just plain dirty light brown nautical “nautical”. We think they make interesting additions to seaside maritime themed rooms and we have boys', girls' and grown up colours here.

£22.50 each

Nautical Knot Door Stop - DG7255

We sell some interesting nautical door stop products on our site and this is one of the best. Our nautical knot door stops! Incidentally, a nautical knot in speed terms is equal to 1.15 land miles per hour. This information could be useful to you one day, but these of course are the other type of knots and we'd say are essential nautical decor for any sea themed home. They weigh over a kilo apiece so are an object perhaps not to consider if your wife/husband throws things at you, but on a serious note look classy and fitting in any beachy home - most poular destinations are bathrooms and living rooms! Attractive maritime rope effect.

14 cms high extending to 30cms at top of the rope.

Lobster Pots

The best in nautical decor as well as more practical sailing reasons.
