Forget the set of drawers, it's the chair we're talking about here, specifically the Condesa chair by Sentou Edition.
It's a take on the 'basket' chair common in the 1960s. Only this one has a structure in black powder coated solid steel with epoxy resin, while the seat is in plastic rope with UV protection. Which means it's good for in, out or in your conservatory. Interestingly, it's also handmade in a Mexican workshop.
Three colour options, all selling for £305.
Tesco isn't the first place I'd go when looking for new lighting but their retro desk lamp is worth a look.
It's their budget version of the classic Anglepoise design, made from metal and using the distinctive spring hinging. It's available in either black or the red colour shown. They've also an oversized version of the lamp for sale – measuring 188cm high.
The lamp costs a bargain £20.

Not something we have seen in the UK, but for readers in North America, the Gus Modern Spencer armchair.
Packing that late 50s/early 60s Knoll-style look, the Spencer, which is available in various colours, has a blind-tufted seat and back cushion, plus a stainless steel inset base for a seat that's likely to be as comfortable as it is stylish.
Available from Allmodern in the US, prices start at $1,155.
We featured one of these yesterday, but here's a second reissued George Nelson wall clock from the 1960s – the Vitra Polygon clock.
1961 is the year of original creation, with the Polygon offering a quirky shape with lots of angles and sharp edges, not a million miles from yesterday's Wheel, but this time made entirely from walnut, except the quartz movement of course.
Back on the market now, you can pick one up for £305.
An easy and attractive way to a shabby chic look with the new vintage patchwork collection at Welbeck Tiles.
You may remember the distinctive British postcard tile collection we featured a little while back. This range uses a similar principle, featuring 30 different designs of floral tiles. You can also get gold-coloured tiles, or tiles featuring heart-shaped patterns to arrange to create your own distinctive look.
Individual prices can be found on website or you can order them as a hand-selected mix (as shown in the image) where a quarter square metre, made of 49 tiles, is £175.

A contemporary ceramic but this Paradisverkstan pink stripe vase is a perfect finishing touch to a 50s style room.
The Fifties feel comes from those pastel stripes which go perfectly with the classic shape of the vase. There's a couple of equally attractive variations on the website too, showing the vase with green or brown stripes. The Paradisverkstan pottery has a good heritage too: though it doesn't stretch back to the 50s, they have been producing ceramics in Sweden since 1976.
This vase costs £55.
