eBay watch: 1970s Guzzini-style Mushroom table lamp

Posted on | Leave a comment

Guz

It's probably high street rather than high end, but the look and condition of this Guzzini-style Mushroom table lamp make it worthy of our attention.

For your money, you get a look that screams the 1970s, with that vibrant orange plastic shade and chrome plated base, both described as being in 'good' condition and looking it in the photos. There are also two small bayonet fittings inside for the bulbs.

£29.99 is the current price on eBay.

Photoroid by Ryan Astle – turn your iPhone into a Polaroid camera

Posted on | 1 Comment

Polaroid

A while back, we ran a feature on the best vintage camera apps for the iPhone, one of which was a Polaroid app. If you want to complete the look, you need Photoroid by Ryan Astle.

As you might have guessed, it converts your iPhone into a Polaroid camera. At least, in looks anyway. You get artwork for the back of your phone, with a smaller piece for the front, combining to create that vintage-style look.

It fits all iPhones, takes around five minutes to apply (and less to remove), with an online price of $14.99.
