Arne Jacobsen Hotel Royal pendant light

Arne_royal
We featured the Hotel Royal in Copenhagen as a retro retreat, a hotel that owes its look and feel to Danish designer Arne Jacobsen. And if you want some of that style in your home, you can have it with this Arne Jacobsen Hotel Royal pendant light.

This acrylic light dates back to the original hotel design in 1959, more specifically for the hotel snack bar, where this four-piece cube-shaped light illuminated the sandwiches of the great and the good of Copenhagen society.

If you want it to brighten up your home, it retails for £195.

Marimekko Kaivo tonic bag

Marimekko_kaivo
We touched on the Marimekko Kaivo design some time ago. But now it has been revisited by Marimekko for a new range of items, including this Marimekko Kaivo tonic bag.

The Kaivo design was introduced in 1964 by Maija Isola, but the new colourways (including this mustard yellow) have been created by Maija’s daughter, Kristina Isola and used on a range of new bags.

This tonic bag is made of 100 per cent light cotton and is ideal as an everyday bag for throwing your essentials in. It retails for £38.

Monza copper alarm clock

Monza
If the idea of waking up to some early morning DJ doesn’t appeal or you just want to invest in a smart travel timepiece, you might want to check out this Monza copper alarm clock.

Monza because it is reminiscent of the clocks in vintage racing cars and copper because that’s that the outer casing consists of (or you can opt for a gunmetal finish instead). Combined, it’s a very cool clock.

Sized at 70 x 35 x 70cm and powered by an AAA battery, you can pick one up for £19.
