Arne Jacobsen-style Gordon table lamp from Graham and Green

Gordon light
Graham and Green's website says this Gordon table lamp is inspired by 1940s design, and there's no denying the retro appeal of the design. However, with the distinctive shape of that shade, it reminds me of a much later design – Arne Jacobsen's AJ lamps, which dates to 1960.

The main difference is the stand: the Gordon lamp has been mounted onto a metallic stand and base, which brings more of an industrial look and prevents the lamp from being purely an imitation design.  

While a AJ lamp would cost you around £500, this lamp costs £95.

Odyssey chair at Graham and Green

Odyssey chair

Cast your mind back and you may be able to remember the Odyssey desk, inspired by a 1940s design. That design proved understandably popular, so Graham and Green have produced an accompanying Odyssey chair.

The design is exclusive to the company and the back and arms echoes some of the sharp angles of the desk. The unusual look is completed by a suspended back, and gently sloping back legs. The design is completed by the linen seat. 

The chair costs £195 and is currently available to pre-order online
