Mid-century style Celine desk at John Lewis

Celine desk
Got some correspondence that needs to be written in style? How about this Celine desk from John Lewis? It's very much in the mid-century mode with a simple top that allows plenty of space to spread your stuff out on and with a drawer and storage shelf underneath. The whole thing sits on solid oak legs.

It's an elegant piece of design that should stay looking good through the years. The desk sells for £349.

1970s-style Ice Pendant lights by Refer+Staer

Ice_pendant

A classy and modern design that should fit effortlessly into any 70s-style home – the Ice Pendant lights by Refer+Staer.

Designed by Sofie Refer, you actually get two lights per order, both made of mouth blown glass with a matching anodised aluminium stem, a ceiling rosette and built-in transformer.

We love the smoked glass finish that screams that 1970s era, although you can opt for a clear or blue finish too. The two-pack is yours for £303.

Bel & Bel classic Vespa seating

Vespa1

If you can't salvage a whole scooter, you might as well recycle what you can – what way better way to do it than by producing something like the Bel & Bel classic Vespa seating.

Old Vespa legshields converted to seating – what's not to like? Judging by the website there's plenty of options to choose from, including colour, scooter style and matching seating. This could be the coolest office chair you'll ever own.

Sadly, we don't know any details of ordering or stockists as the site isn't in English and there don't seem any obvious price details listed. So if you want one, drop them a line – they might be cheaper than you think. See another image over the page.

Starburst wall decor

Starburst wall

Think sunburst/starburst designs and you are probably imagining a clock or a mirror from the mid-modern period. Wallter, the people behind the bubble rack we featured last week, have used this motif to create this Starburst wall decor

Rather than being another wall sticker, it's a wood based 3D creation and it's made ready for painting with the colour of your choice. It comes in two sizes with two prices: either just over 60cm in diameter for $142 or, for a dramatic statement and a higher cost, approximately 112cm for $300.

Arne Jacobsen 1950s Dot stool for Fritz Hansen

Dotstool

Over 50 years and still looking as sharp as ever – the Arne Jacobsen 1950s Dot stool is back on the market, courtesy of Fritz Hansen.

Perfect for an emergency seat or just for brightening up a room, Dot sells for £163.50.
