Christmas 2025: The Best Luxury Stockings
Pottery Barn
Holiday Icons Crewel Stockings, £34.40

Holly & Co
Personalised Pine Nutcracker Quilted Christmas Stocking, £85

This handcrafted stocking is made from pure wool, and depicts a classic design: a nutcracker surrounded with stitched stars. A truly charming piece for your mantle.
Top Tips: How To Hang Your Stockings
Invest In Mantel Hooks
If you aren’t looking to do some DIY with hammering nails into your mantlepiece or mark any surfaces, why not order some mantel hooks? The perfect replacement without the fuss.
No Mantel? No Problem
Fireplaces are the more traditional place to hang stockings, but if you don’t live in a house with a fireplace or a mantelpiece, fear not. You can hang these on the end of your bed, on doorknobs or up the staircase.
Give It Some Filler
If you’re stocking looks droopy once you’ve hung this up (and it’s not yet been filled with festive treats) then you can stuff the inside with some plastic bags or tissue paper to fill these up.
Add Personal Touches
Remember to add a name tag to each of these stockings – if they haven’t already been personalised – to avoid mixing them up. A personal touch, like a handwritten tag, can also make the gifting experience feel extra special.
