eBay watch: 1970s Light Bulb Desk Lamp
We have featured a couple of variations of this 'look' in the past – the original Bulb Table Lamp by Ingo Maurer and the rather stylish (and much cheaper) Watt table lamp at John Lewis. However, you can get a similar look even cheaper (potentially) with this 1970s Light Bulb Desk Lamp.
Bridge table designed by Matthew Hilton from Heal’s
The Matthew Hilton-designed Bridge table is another great design from the Heal's Scandinavian season.
Just a look at the table reveals its mid-century inspired influences, with its elegant tapering legs, and oak or walnut veneer finish. There's a practical twist to this design too: it's able to extend in size. Available in two sizes, the smaller table extends from 110cm up to 160cm, while the larger table is 260cm when extended.
While the table is able to grow or shrink in size, there's no escaping the price you'll be paying for this classic design: the smaller table costs £1095, while the larger version costs £1595.

Routemaster letter rack by Susan Bradley
If you've already bought the bookend, surely your home is also crying out for Susan Bradley's Routemaster letter rack?
As with the bookend, she's taken the instantly recognisable shape of London's most loved bus and applied it to a usually quite dull household object. The rack can be mounted or is usable freestanding and the cheery outline of the Routemaster is bound to make storing your correspondence that bit more fun: no mean feat, especially if bills are involved.
The letter rack costs £20.
