German ceramics of the 60s and 70s are a growing area of collecting, and you may have seen our article on Fat Lava, that tells you all about it. But if you can’t find an original German vase then how about buying this look-a-like, 3 colour onion vase from Debenhams?

It just shows that the 70s look is finally back as a key influence in interior design. This vase has all the characteristics you would expect to find on an original piece: the bright colours, organic shape, and thick dipped layer glaze.

You could just look out for the real thing at a local charity shop (if you are lucky), or you could buy this one and get the look for £15.

You may have seen the coasters we featured from MOMA with Charles and Ray Eames chairs on, well if you liked those then you’ll probably also like these Dot coasters designed by the couple.

With great 50s style they feature a classic dot pattern in contrasting colours. You get a set of four, and they would grace the table of any modernist home, and are a great way to get some classic design without huge cost.

You can buy them online for only £15, so a lot less than a classic Eames chair.

Hidden amongst the uniform product lines at Ikea is the occasional piece of smart design, in this case the Koge rug.

Designed by Cina Kjellsson, it’s very much reminiscent of early 60s pieces, with an abstract design on plain background. The nylon rug is 200cm x 82cm, has a rubber backing to keep it in place and retails for £34.99.
