Kristian Vedel Child’s Chair – a 1950s classic reissued

Vedel

Bizarrely, we flagged this up as a vintage find some months back, but we have just discovered that the Kristian Vedel Child’s Chair has been reissued as part of the Architect Made series.

Produced around 1955 in Denmark, it’s a stylish and simple mid-century design that still works today. The frame is semi-circular bent plywood, with slats to support adjustable pieces of laminated plywood, held in place by tension. And when your child grows, just move up a slot.

Available online, you can pick up the chair for £295.

Brio Pull-Along Dachshund

Largedachshund

A pull-along dog has been a feature of many a childhood, but few are as cool as Brio’s Pull-Along Dachshund.

Scandinavian toy manufacturer Brio first introduced its pull-along Dachshund back in 1953. The original dachshund was just 20cm long, but recently they have introduced a larger version, measuring 50cm long. As well as being a classic design, the dog is ideal for developing motor skills, perception and balance.

Funktion Alley stock the large version for £40. The original small version is available at a much cheaper price with Active Toys selling it for a mere £4.99
