Another classic 1960s reissue by Oluce – the Joe Colombo Spider adjustable table lamp.

The Spider was first produced back in 1966, but is back now in limited quantities – so if you want one, make your mind up soon! An almost timeless design, the adjustable lamp has a chrome-plated stem, along with a based and reflector in lacquered black metal and a bulb that almost floats within the shade.

Available online, it retails for £414.

Regular reader will know we’re big fans of Kay + Stemmer – and with designs like this Juliet dining table, is it any surprise?

It’s mid-century design for the modern era, packing all those eye-catching curves, as well as room enough for eight hungry diners. For your money, you get four solid oak legs (supported by two hidden steel y-frames), a veneered oak top with solid oak lipping and a unique design that’s going to prove a solid investment in years to come.

The whole thing is sold flat-packed and available from SCP for £1,665.

At first glance, this is just a classic light bulb that’s been smashed and melted, but it’s actually a cool piece of design – the Ceci by Sander Mulder.

It’s not just an old bulb – in fact it’s any but – the ‘shade’ being hand-blown from heat-resistant Pyrex glass, while the actual light aspect comes from a high-powered LED light. And as it’s LED, this is one bulb you’ll probably never have to change.

A limited edition, signed and numbered by the designer, you can pick one up for $219, which is around £110.
