Egloo Telephone Box salt and pepper set by David Roberts

Egloo

This Egloo Telephone Box salt and pepper set by David Roberts mixes the very traditional with the contemporary. 

The 'Egloo' is Roberts's word to describe the shape of his shakers: a mixture of egg and igloo. Their unusual shape contrasts to the image depicted on each one, which offers a small piece of nostalgia for your kichen table. For example, in the set pictured, the egloos feature a classic red phone box while another design shows a traditional London guard. 

The Egloos cost £18.

Pretty City red telephone box doorstop

Doorstop

It’s fairly easy to find a nice fabric doorstop – we’ve featured more than a few on this site. The idea is given a fun twist with this doorstop by Pretty City which comes in the iconic shape of a red telephone box

Though instantly recognisable as a phone box, it’s been given something of a make-over. The 10cm high doorstop is covered in appliqued and embroidered flowers and scrolls as well as the words ‘hello’ and ‘goodbye’ sewn onto either side of the doorstop. The stuffing also makes it a touch more wonky than your average phone box too, that’s unless vandals have been at it again of course. 

A fun purchase, this doorstop costs £16.99.
