What do you buy a fan of mid century design if you can't quite afford an Eames chair or a Noguchi lamp? This Mid Century Designers pencil set is a cheap fix.
Available from the Etsy store of One Up designs, it's a set of silver stamped pencils, just like the posh pencils you might have got given while at school with your name on them. Instead of your name, however, these pencils are decorated with the names of design greats: Aalto, Saarinen, Mies van der Rohe, Noguchi, Nelson and, not forgetting, the Eames.
It's a simple thing but no less enjoyable for it. Take a look at the rest of the store for pencil sets based on more pop culture themes like video games, Twin Peaks and dead wrestlers.
A set will set you back approximately £3.81.
