Supermarkets from Aldi to Lidl, and stores from Primark to Wilko, have brought out their own homeware collections – with key pieces resembling their pricier rivals.

From rugs to plant pots and cushions to clocks, we’ve scoured bargain stores for some essential pieces which will add a touch of luxury, without blowing the budget.

Starting from just £3, some of these homeware must-haves are more than £1,000 cheaper than their expensive twins.

But can you tell the difference between the designer version and its cut price double?
