Kenneth Wingard 1950s-style Sunburst clock

Sunburst

It’s not exactly re-inventing the wheel, but there’s no denying that the Kenneth Wingard 1950s-style Sunburst clock is a stylish timepiece.

It’s more or less a carbon copy of the ones you probably remember hanging in an elderly relative’s home – originating back in the 50s, but still going strong through the 1970s.

Take your pick from large and small, with a choice of dark or light wood mixing with the brass clock face. Prices start at $70 (around £35).

Deus Grievous Angel retro-styled motorbike

Deus

If you want the look and feel of a vintage motorcycle mixed with modern-day know-how, you might want to check out the Deus Motorcycle Company.

Deus celebrates the custom motorcycle culture of the 1940s onwards, a reaction to the bland bikes currently being pumped out by the industry big boys. And Deus bikes are certainly making a name with enthusiasts with models like the Grievous Angel, packing  powder-coated mags, a modified frame and a host of performance parts that make this a demon on the road, as well as a stylish retro bike.

Certainly not cheap at $21,000, but definitely an individual. Check out the website for many more models, including some chrome-clad stunners.
