Retro Tile Prints – SOLD

30 Aug

The height of retro these tile prints will bring a touch of the ’70s into your kitchen or bathroom. I’m a big fan of mixing old and new, and while I definitely couldn’t handle an entire kitchen done up ’70s style, I think small accents can go a long way to creating a space that stands out!

Dimensions: 15cm x 15cm

Price: R100 for 40 tile prints

Corning Glass Frying Pan

Over the years I’ve seen a few of these glass frying pans, but – my secret revealed – I don’t cook, so I have no idea how they are to actually cook with! If anyone has used a Corning frying pan please let me know your thoughts, although Corning (France) is a solid brand so I’m assuming they knew what they were doing when they manufactured these!

Dimensions: 26cm wide x 5cm deep

Price: R180

You can almost see the glass melting in the spout of this hand-blown water jug which I think dates to the ’70s. I’ve been told that it’s most likely Scandanavian in origin, but regardless of its provenance I love this jug!

Dimensions: 23cm high x 13cm at its widest

Price: R165
