Loving the 60s-inspired looks of the Enzo Berti Pop Chair.
Use it in your home or in your garden, with the circular chair made of moulded polyethilene (in a choice of white, yellow, orange, red or black), standing on a chromium metal base.
Remember the Ikea Karlstad Sofa? We featured it some months back on the back of it being inspired by the classic Florence Knoll sofa from 1954. Well, now it’s back – offering just a little bit more for your money.
The new version comes in black, white and brown leather, offering room for three people and a sofa bed for one or two, as well as storage underneath for pillow and quilts or all those magazines cluttering up the room. And unlike most sofa beds, it’s not an eye sore when you don’t need the extra sleeping space.
The people behind the Keep Calm Gallery have launched a new site called the Manicule, offering their limited edition poster artwork on homeware – including these retro mugs.
Not just the two designs above available, others include ‘eat your greens’, ‘loose lips might sink ships’, ‘every cloud has a silver lining’ and ‘stop and smell the roses’. All are printed onto fine china mugs and all are sized at Height 8.5cm (height) and 7.5cm (diameter).
While the fifties pin-up style continues to grow in popularity you might want a more discerning take on the decade. That’s easy with a more clean cut style like this Eleanor dress by Monsoon.
With a stunning high-necked, full skirted cut, the cap sleeves complete a great silhouette. The floral print completes the mood in a purple hue fit for all year round.
Newgate can always be relied upon to knock out retro styled clocks, with the Bubble wall clock the latest addition to the range.
No prizes for guessing why the clock os so called – that bulbous acrylic front sticks out in more ways than one. Aside from that, there’s a solid back, retro-styled paper dial, metal hands and a choice of black or cream for the finish.
The days are getting shorter and the weather will start to get colder. So perhaps a good time to invest in one of these dhb retro wool cycling tops.
The tops are hand made in Belgium, made of ‘wool-acryl’ and feature four classic designs – Molteni (two versions of the team shirt worn by the legendary Eddy Merckx), Faema (from the period 1955 – 1970) and Solo-Superia (60s team led by the legendary Belgian rider Rik van Looy).
