eBay watch: 1970s De Sede leather armchair

Desede

You might recognise the name De Sede from this site in the past, with items like the iconic space age DS-1025 modular sofa (made famous by the movie Logan's Run) and the recently-reissued DS51 armchair. Neither came cheap, so this De Sede leather armchair looks decent value.

Sadly, there isn't a model number offered and we don't recognise it, but there's no denying it's a big, comfy armchair that screams the era and if it carries the De Sede name, it's going to be a quality item.

According to the seller, the chair is in 'good condition', but may have been refinished at some point, if that matters to you. It's on a 'Buy It Now' for £425 or the seller will take an offer.

Zoe Ditsy Jumpsuit from Boohoo

Boohoojumpsuit

Jumpsuits are often something associated with a power dressing 1980s aesthetic, but the all-in-one predated that decade by some distance. There are few jumpsuits with any seventies aesthetic on the high street, but this Zoe Ditsy Jumpsuit from Boohoo gives it a worthy go.

With all the high glamour of 1970s disco style, the piece is both daring and simple, with the cut doing all the work. A super-low neckline injects some Studio 54 glamour, while the long tapered trousers and loose sleeves stop the look from becoming trashy (or at least, the wrong sort of trashy).

Get it online from Boohoo for £25.

Camper

If you're on the look out for one, this 1972 T2 Volkswagen Camper Van is a real head-turner.

Tax-exempt, this van might have 150,000 on the clock, but it's had the works when it comes to restoration – everything from a full body and engine rebuild through to new cupboards and bed – nothing has been ignored.

With that in mind, words don't really do it justice. Check out the listing for more images and a couple of YouTube videos giving the lowdown. If you like what you see, £9,995 is the price right now.

eBay watch: Vintage JVC 3020GM Videosphere Cube TV

Cube

Now I'm just repeating the title given to this by the seller, but I'm pretty sure that something called a JVC 3020GM Videosphere Cube TV should be round?

Not to be confused with the JVC Videosphere space helmet TV we all know and love, this is an altogether more rare set, but every bit as stylish. Of course, the technology is way behind – this is only a black and white solid state set, in need of some work to get it running in the digital age. But the cube design and contrast colours really do make it stand out.

Probably dating to the early 70s and described as being in 'very good condition' by the seller, you can check out more great images of it online. And if you want it? Well, it's just £1 right now.
