eBay watch: Midcentury Danish rocking chair

Danish

I love this design – and the midcentury Danish rocking chair isn't too expensive as I write.

It's a refurbished design, with what looks like a good job on it too. The cushions have new foam adhering to current fire regulations, with new upholstery in a textured green fabric plus a restored solid teak frame. It's even got brand new webbing.

The design is still intact though, with those lovely curves and sloping back. £79.99 is the current bid price.

1970s Apple Tree Moneybox

Green-apple-tree-moneybox 
Having previously featured the owl and elephant designs, it seems only right that we also mention the Apple Tree Moneybox, another reproduction of a 1970s Danish design.

The tree looks like a typical piece of Scandinavian folk art design and has a hole in the back so you can hang it on the wall should you wish. There are two options available, either a green tree with red apples or a red tree with yellow apples.

The moneybox costs £8.95 from Hus and Hem.

eBay watch: 1950s Danish midcentury mini cabinet

Cabinet

There's no brand on this, but there is no denying that the 1950s Danish midcentury mini cabinet pictured above is an eye-catching piece of design.

Screaming the era, this gem has those 'skinny' angled legs, a grained oak and teak finish plus two shelves behind the two doors. Just pull on the brass handles to get inside.

The seller ships worldwide for a modest price and the selling price right now is equally as modest. Just £9.

Danish Large Teak Commode

Teakcommode 
Back in August, we featured the Danish Teak Bedside Cabinets, which have been bestsellers for Plümo (not that we are taking all of the credit).  For their Spring 2011 Collection, they have added a variation in this Large Teak Commode.

The larger model (pictured above with the popular original) has two drawers, but still has the same curved edges and splayed legs that gave the original its popular midcentury look. Although new in to Plümo, you will have to wait a while for this item to be made, but it is probably worth the wait.

Buy the Teak Commode from Plümo for £398.

Copenhagen tea towel by Ferm Living

Copenhagen

Michelle Mason has celebrated London, Maria Dahlgren has illustrated Stockholm. Now Ferm Living celebrates their home city with this Copenhagen tea towel

The Danish company's towel reproduces some of the city's landmarks, such as the Little Mermaid statue. Like the designers mentioned above, this is a very stylized 50s/60s-style design which is enhanced by the soft colour scheme. These same colours run through all of Ferm Living's new collection meaning there's plenty of retro gems to look out for. 

Printed on 100% cotton, the tea towel costs $19.

House Doctor DK Pallet Coffee Table

1150 
Designed to look like it is made from a recycled pallet, but probably made from new materials, the Pallet Coffee Table nonetheless embraces the industrial chic style.

The table measures 64cm by 44cm and stands at 35cm high and like a pallet, it has metal wheels to make moving it around the room easy. It is made by House Doctor in Denmark so will take 2 to 3 weeks to deliver.

Order it from Bodie and Fou, priced £550.
