Essential in any living room.
An ANTA upholstered stool
with its solid oak legs allows
extra occasional seating
which is firm enough to set a
tray on and use as a coffee
table.

Tweed, made from British
yarn which is extremely hard
wearing, an ANTA stool
should last a lifetime. Stools
can be upholstered in all of
our fabric patterns and are

Made to Measure Curtains
We can make curtains to fit your windows.
Simply give us the dimensions.
First put up a pole or rail. If possible this
should be at least 20cm above the window
opening and extend 20cm either side.
It should also be placed at least 20cm below
the ceiling, if the ceiling height allows.
Decide where you would like the curtains to
start and finish. For example, in the case
illustrated opposite we decided that when
the curtains were fully closed we would like
the curtain fabric to completely cover the
end wall and the window. Therefore we
took the measurement from floor to ceiling
to establish the finished LENGTH.
To work out the required WIDTH, we need
to know the total length of the pole or rail.
Once we have thesetwo measurements we
can work out how much cloth you will need
and can give you an estimate for your
curtains.

Paint
Transform a space using colour,
simply by choosing a suitable
and sometimes unusual colour.
A good colour can make the
difference between an ordinary
and exciting interior. The
ANTA paint range is a small
and carefully edited collection.
There are twenty beautiful and
useful colours, which makes
the decision much easier.
We chose ANTA Loch for this
small en suite bathroom. We
put matt emulsion on the walls
and oil based eggshell on the
cupboards.

A Saltire is a heraldic symbol in the

it our own by weaving it into our
new lightweight scarves and
earasaids.
The earasaid, essentially a large
shawl is the feminine version of the
kilt. Worn as a scarf during the day
and more formally as a wrap in the
evening. This versatile modern
accessory updates a favourite dress.

'Transform even such simple
activities as a picnic. How
hideous and inflexible those
fluorescent cool boxes appear
after ANTA's utility bags in
tweeds flecked with colours of
the hill. They can be filled to
bursting with frying pans and
bottles, carried on shoulders
across the dunes and then
stuffed with swimming towels
and jerseys to make big
comfortable cushions.
No more plastic beakers when
you can warm your hands on a
stoneware mug filled with tea
brewed on a driftwood fire;
they can be thrown in with the
sausages and beers and never
seem to break.
Carpet a dune hollow with
ANTA throws, and when the
wind picks up, you can shake
out the sand and use them to
muffle heads and shoulders, or
to wrap round shivering
children as they emerge from
the sea.'

Picnics
60
Often food tastes better when
cooked and eaten outside. Picnics
are certainly the best and simplest
way to entertain friends and family
of all ages. They also can be the
most fun. The art to successful
entertaining is to start with a
spectacular setting.
Live Lobsters and Crabs
Shellfish is best cooked as soon as it
is taken from the water. In Scotland
the best place to get it is direct from
the fishermen.
Simply boil sea water, drop in the
shellfish and bring back up to the boil.
Remove from the heat and allow to
cool in the water.
Break the shells,take out the meat and
eat it with freshly squeezed lemon juice
dipped in homemade mayonnaise.
Lobsters like some ceramic glazes
are a completely different colour
before firing.
To watch the colour of lobsters
change from dark blue to red, once
they are cooked, never ceases to
amaze.

rapeseed oil
Using a balloon whisk beat the
egg yolks, mustard, salt and
pepper together. Very gradually
add the oil a drip at a time
whisking well between each
addition. Once you have added
about half the oil the
mayonnaise should be thick
and may look lumpy. Add the
vinegar and beat well. Add the
rest of the oil in a thin stream,
beating all the time. Once the
mayonnaise has reached the
desired consistency season
adding further salt, pepper and
lemon juice to taste. You can of
course use a hand mixer of
food processer – you still need
to add the oil gradually to
prevent it curdling.
Cooks tip: if the mayonnaise
does curdle, simply whisk a
further egg yolk in a clean bowl
and gradually beat in drops of
the curdled mixture followed
by any remaining oil.
To serve divide between
several small blackridge bowls.

Pavlova
Having made the mayonnaise,
now you have an excuse to
make this fabulous pudding
using the egg whites that are
left over.
8 egg whites
250g / 10oz caster sugar
150g / 6oz icing sugar
1 tbs white wine vinegar
pinch of salt
1 tbs cornflour
Preheat oven 180C / gas 4
(preferably do not use a fan
oven)
Lightly grease a RuaridhWaugh
serving plate.
In a large, dry bowl, beat the
egg whites using an electric
beater on high speed until it
forms soft peaks. Gradually
add the sugar about a
tablespoon at a time and beat
continuously until mixture is
firm and glossy and sugar has
dissolved. Beat in the vinegar
and salt. Sift the cornflour and
gently fold in.
Using a spatula, spread mixture
over the centre of the plate
making the sides straight and
higher than the centre.
Reduce the heat of the oven to
150C / gas 2 and cook for 1
hour. Turn the oven off and
leave the door slightly open,
allow to cool in the oven.
300ml / ½ pt double cream
mix of fruits such as mango,
pineapple, passion fruit, straw-
berries, raspberries, melon
Whip the cream, pile into the
centre of the Pavlova and top
with the mixed fruit.
Possibly the best thing about
ANTA stoneware is that you
can cook this pudding and
serve it on the same plate. This
way there is less chance of
breaking the meringue.

Simply give us the dimensions. First put up a pole or rail. If possible this should be at least 20cm above the window opening and extend 20cm either side. It should also be placed at least 20cm below the ceiling, if the ceiling height allows. Decide where you would like the curtains to start and finish. For example, in the case illustrated opposite we decided that when the curtains were fully closed we would like the curtain fabric to completely cover the end wall and the window. Therefore we took the measurement from floor to ceiling to establish the finished LENGTH. To work out the required WIDTH, we need to know the total length of the pole or rail. Once we have thesetwo measurements we can work out how much cloth you will need and can give you an estimate for your curtains.

  • 31. 8 'Transform even such simple activities as a picnic. How hideous and inflexible those fluorescent cool boxes appear after ANTA's utility bags in tweeds flecked with colours of the hill. They can be filled to bursting with frying pans and bottles, carried on shoulders across the dunes and then stuffed with swimming towels and jerseys to make big comfortable cushions. No more plastic beakers when you can warm your hands on a stoneware mug filled with tea brewed on a driftwood fire; they can be thrown in with the sausages and beers and never seem to break. Carpet a dune hollow with ANTA throws, and when the wind picks up, you can shake out the sand and use them to muffle heads and shoulders, or to wrap round shivering children as they emerge from the sea.' Mary Miers, Architectural writer, Highland enthusiast and family friend. Throw Yvonne Mackay Lambswool & Cotton 205 x 155cm 58 Picnics
  • 32. 60 Often food tastes better when cooked and eaten outside. Picnics are certainly the best and simplest way to entertain friends and family of all ages. They also can be the most fun. The art to successful entertaining is to start with a spectacular setting. Live Lobsters and Crabs Shellfish is best cooked as soon as it is taken from the water. In Scotland the best place to get it is direct from the fishermen. Simply boil sea water, drop in the shellfish and bring back up to the boil. Remove from the heat and allow to cool in the water. Break the shells,take out the meat and eat it with freshly squeezed lemon juice dipped in homemade mayonnaise. Lobsters like some ceramic glazes are a completely different colour before firing. To watch the colour of lobsters change from dark blue to red, once they are cooked, never ceases to amaze. Cooking Outside
  • 33. Large Scarf Orange and Blue Saltire Lambswool and Silk 175 x 40cm V Neck Jumper Robin Pure Lambswool Earsaid Red Saltire Lambswool and Silk 175 x 80cm Small Bowl Blackridge ovenproof Stoneware 275ml Mayonnaise 8 egg yolks 4 tsp mustard 4tsp white wine vinegar squeeze lemon pinch of salt pepper approx. 1.2 litre (2 pints) rapeseed oil Using a balloon whisk beat the egg yolks, mustard, salt and pepper together. Very gradually add the oil a drip at a time whisking well between each addition. Once you have added about half the oil the mayonnaise should be thick and may look lumpy. Add the vinegar and beat well. Add the rest of the oil in a thin stream, beating all the time. Once the mayonnaise has reached the desired consistency season adding further salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste. You can of course use a hand mixer of food processer – you still need to add the oil gradually to prevent it curdling. Cooks tip: if the mayonnaise does curdle, simply whisk a further egg yolk in a clean bowl and gradually beat in drops of the curdled mixture followed by any remaining oil. To serve divide between several small blackridge bowls.

  • 36. Baked Potatoes The best potatoes to use for baking are, Dunbar Rover Desiree King Edwards Lady Balfour Maris Piper Duke ofYork Rooster Allow one potato per person. Score each potato.

  • 38. Pavlova Having made the mayonnaise, now you have an excuse to make this fabulous pudding using the egg whites that are left over. 8 egg whites 250g / 10oz caster sugar 150g / 6oz icing sugar 1 tbs white wine vinegar pinch of salt 1 tbs cornflour Preheat oven 180C / gas 4 (preferably do not use a fan oven) Lightly grease a RuaridhWaugh serving plate. In a large, dry bowl, beat the egg whites using an electric beater on high speed until it forms soft peaks. Gradually add the sugar about a tablespoon at a time and beat continuously until mixture is firm and glossy and sugar has dissolved. Beat in the vinegar and salt. Sift the cornflour and gently fold in. Using a spatula, spread mixture over the centre of the plate making the sides straight and higher than the centre. Reduce the heat of the oven to 150C / gas 2 and cook for 1 hour. Turn the oven off and leave the door slightly open, allow to cool in the oven. 300ml / ½ pt double cream mix of fruits such as mango, pineapple, passion fruit, straw- berries, raspberries, melon Whip the cream, pile into the centre of the Pavlova and top with the mixed fruit. Possibly the best thing about ANTA stoneware is that you can cook this pudding and serve it on the same plate. This way there is less chance of breaking the meringue.
