Some years back, I saw and passed over a set of Gianfranco Frattini nesting tables on a car boot sale for not a lot of cash. Judging by the price of a new set, that was a rather foolish move.

Designed back in 1966 and still in production by Cassina, the 780/783 nesting tables (different numbers for different sizes) are four circular occasional tables, all with a beechwood frame and a choice of black, white or natural lacquering, finished off with a reversible plastic laminate top.

Pull them out when you need them, slot them together if you want to store all four. Prices start at £934.

Not an authentic 60s piece, but the Supernova suspension lamp from Foscarini is every bit a space age gem.

Designed by Ferruccio Laviani, the Supernova is constructed from a series of parellel discs for both a great look and an unique flow of light. And it’s also available in a number of finishes, everything from lacquered aluminium to polished stainless steel – but the classic white looks like the one to go for.

Complete with chrome support, it sells for £725.
