Disguising clever, but unattractive modern technology in style of the past is clearly a growth industry with the flat-screen television being the most popular item for makeover.

California-based Wilkerson Furniture have designed the M21 Flat TV Console, which houses flat-screen television in a mid-century style stand. Made from a mixture of solid and veneer hardwoods, the console is available in black walnut or cherry and can be custom-built according to the size of your television.

For further information contact Wilkerson Furniture directly via their website.

The trouble with being an icon is that your image ends up on all sorts of products, and Marilyn Monroe’s image must be one of the most (over) used. However, this Marilyn Room Divider manages to make good use of some familiar images.

The divider consists of three panels, each measuring 180 x 45 x 2.5cm and featuring two images of the starlet. The photographs are sepia tinged so that they work well with the vintage style of the divider.

It costs just under £160 and can be ordered from England at Home.

Some time ago we featured the Cobra Lamp by Elio Martinelli. Now here is its companion piece, the Cobra Coffee Table.

Unlike the lamp, the table doesn’t seem to be in production any more so this vintage one on Planet Bazaar is the only one I’ve come across, but do let us know if you know differently. It dates back to the 1970s and is made from white ABS plastic.

If you are interested in purchasing this table, contact Planet Bazaar to find out more details, including the all-important price.
