For anyone unaware, David Hicks was the king of interior design in the 1960s and 1970s – and is currently being rediscovered by a new generation through his vintage books and designs and through new work by his Paris-based company – although today it’s being run by Christophe d’Aboville rather than Mr Hicks, who died in 1998.

This Flower cushion is by d’Aboville, based on a signature Hicks design from the 1960s and using red and pink suede, with just 16 being made for and sold by 20ltd.

The price for this super-rare cushion? £700. Yes, that’s £700 for a cushion, albeit one that should prove a solid investment for the future, just as long as no-one sits on it!

Noble Designs specialise in handmade lamps and Art Deco furniture, including pieces inspired by leading French furniture-maker Emile-Jacques Ruhlmann – and as all the pieces are custom-made, you can make the final decision on size, colour and finish for just about everything.

We’re very taken by the lamps, including this stunning Scott brushed aluminium table lamp. it has three large large discs over a set of smaller discs and an overall shape that screams the 1930s.

At this point, we usually mention the price, but as all items are purpose-built, there isn’t a specific price point available. If you want a rough idea of how much you’ll need to pay, drop them a line or give them a call.
