We're big fans of Merrow Associates, although most pieces on eBay are either overpriced or the same designs over and over again. This Merrow Associates rosewood and chrome sideboard is something a little different – it seems to be a one off piece.

eBay watch: 1970s Thorn Ultra stereogram in rosewood

Ultra

We have sung the praises of the humble stereogram or radiogram in the past, but there are certainly good and bad examples amongst the many that hit eBay. This Thorn Ultra stereogram in rosewood is one of the better examples.

That exterior alone must have made it a pricey affair 'back in the day' – looking not unlike a piece of Merrow Associates design. Inside you get three-band radio and I suspect, a decent deck – although the seller doesn't give too much detail on it.

Condition is described as 'very good' (bit check the images on the site to make sure) and the price is a Buy It Now of £125. The seller is also looking for offers, so you might get it cheaper.

eBay watch: 1960s Merrow Associates-style rosewood coffee table

Rosewood

The seller claims it 'may be an early piece by Merrow Associates'. We don't think it is, but this rosewood coffee table is certainly a good buy.

Dating back to the 1960s, it has that wonderful rosewood frame, supporting a smoked glass top. There is also storage either side of a central stabliser, along with recessed castors.

The seller claims that there's a tiny scratch along the bottom edge, while tow of the glass pads need replacing. Minor things in other words. Which makes the £49.99 price tag a real bargain.
