A wonderful pair of vintage and very retro looking bedside lamps / table / desk lamps straight from 60's 70's Europe.

Vintage in all respects, I would say ;)

A beautiful and very atomic yet minimalist 1970's vintage matte black wall clock for all you design lovers. Simple and eye catching with white details, a bright continuously running red seconds hand and the well known Krups logo. That's all it takes. The design is such, that the clock sits about 3-4 cm (1.25") off the wall surface, and projects a shadow effect behind it - a very clever detail. It is dual C battery operated, with trusty old quartz action. Honestly, I was a little bit over excited when I found this piece. I still am, I think ;)


Brand:
KRUPS - as labelled on the clock face - a mid nineteenth century pioneer on the market and still a world-renowned kitchen and household appliances manufacturer. Currently my favourite vintage household appliance brand ;) Actually, I get very excited every time I discover a new one.

Era:
70's

Measurements:

20 x 23 x 6 cm

Condition:
Excellent vintage shape. No cracks, chips of repairs whatsoever. I have tested the unit and it works perfectly. It's been around for over 30 years so there are a few marks of use on the back.

A very cool electric fan / heater from the midst of 60's Yugoslavia. Very mid century techie, turbine style design with an industrial creme body and a gold brass fan and shield. It stands on a steel foot and is vertically adjustable. The switches, marked red and green on each side, control the heating and ventilator functions, which makes this sturdy piece of metal useful in all seasons. Not to speak of its industrial looks, which I'd also appreciate any time of the year ;)

My favourite detail is the three element logo cut out on the front shield of the fan - an "S" letter representing the "Saturnus" brand, originally a car manufacturer in Yugoslavia.

Era: 60's

Model: Saturnus, Yugoslavia

Measurements:
height / fan diameter
32 / 18 cm
12.6 / 7.1 inches

Condition:
Good working vintage condition. The heater and fan are functioning well. The metallic look is accompanied by some ware from use in the form of paint loss in parts. Nothing that would really damage this guy's industrial reputation though ;)

Very retro and atomic piece of ceiling lighting straight from the space age era of the 70's. It has a green shade and chrome top which gives it a unique look to the time of mid century modern and futuristic designs. The lampshade's height is adjustable as it hangs on a rolling extendible chord.
It was produced by Meblo, Yugoslavia, probably as part of a Guzzini collection, an Italian lighting manufacturer famous for its 60's 70's atomic lighting designs. The two studios used to partner in production and sales with collaborative branding during their prime time. We had quite a few Meblo / Guzzini lamps in the shop so far, but this one really is one of a kind.

A very elegant vintage pair of table lamps / desk lamps from the 50's or early 60's with brass base and large glass shade. When you switch on the lamps the shades turn into nice subtile yellow colour which gives off a very calming and enchanting light. The shades can also be easily detached. The base of the lamp is in beautiful gold shade (brass) which, I think, adds to more vintage 50's look.

collectible antique teddy bear

Meet Henri, a beautiful children's toy from the 1950's as well as a charming, large shaped and incredibly photogenic teddy. He was crafted by hand, has adjustable joints, plastic eyes and nose and is actually quite large. He is wood wool stuffed throughout, and has short golden brown mohair fur.

He is very well preserved and looking for a humble new owner - good vintage condition in Etsy jargon.

I'm no expert on teddy bears but in my eyes this one is quite special.
