Fantasy is a huge and sprawling genre, littered with brilliant adventures, captivating worlds and unforgettable characters. It takes mythologies and lore from around the world and gives them that ‘something’ extra, and packs them into narratives abundant in adventurous possibilities, whilst also tackling hardcore political and ethical topics. All that, plus dragons, demons and elves.

As a genre, it really does have a lot going for it. That’s probably why so many of the bestselling titles across all entertainment mediums are of the fantasy ilk. Literature has always been a stronghold, with book series like The Wheel Of Time, The Earthsea Cycle, Discworld, Lord Of The Rings and Harry Potter proving unstoppably popular, with the latter two’s movie adaptations taking the world of cinema by storm. HBO’s Game Of Thrones adaptation owned the small screens for years, and Netflix’s The Witcher and Dark Crystal prequel have demonstrated the thirst television audiences still have for high-quality fantasy. Equally, video games, with their vast adventuring and storytelling capabilities, offer up a plethora of triple-A fantasy blockbusters, including The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Diablo III.

In addition to all of the questing and thematic explorations, there’s something else that is undeniably ‘fantasy’ – the aesthetic. Typically, the look of fantasy is an inspired mix, bringing together all the best-looking parts from historical and mythological sources. If you’re wanting to bring a bit of this mystical charm into your home, then you’re in the right place.

Whether you wish to channel the comforting spirit of Bag End, or the austerity of Winterfell, there’s sure to be something here to enchant.
