Acorn mug by Donna Wilson
.
We've featured Donna Wilson's whimsical products before but this new Acorn mug is surely the most specifically retro of her designs to date.
Studio Couch in Donna Wilson Fabric
Various incarnations of Ercol’s Studio Couch have appeared here in the past, from vintage versions to anniversary re-issues.
The latest combines the classic Lucian R Ercolani design with fabric by Donna Wilson, another name that should be familiar to regular readers. The couch is made from beech with the cushions upholstered in Donna Wilson and SCP's Nos Da fabric, which looks as if it comes from the 1950s too. It is currently on sale priced just over £2,130 (having previously been £2,450).
You can take a closer look at it on the SCP website, although you can’t buy it directly online. Note that SCP also has the retro-styled Donna Wilson Mabel sofa in its sale. You can find out about that here.
Birds Nest Plate by Donna Wilson
We've already seen how Donna Wilson's retro style can transfer onto homewares with her sprig tableware for SCP. There's now more ceramic designs available from her online store, including this Birds Nest plate.
The plate, which is handmade and printed in Stoke on Trent, uses a very 70s image and colour scheme. As with her other pieces – across furniture, textiles and ceramics – it's updated in Wilson's trademark style for the twenty-first century.
This fresh take on a classic motif costs £20.
