Vintage plate wallpaper by Studio Ditte

Plate wallpaper

Collector of vintage ceramics? This plate wallpaper by Studio Ditte is sure to appeal, as it's covered with images of antique porcelain plates. It's probably much easier to put up than trying to hang and arrange your own collection. 

The paper comes in rolls of six meters, with a pattern repeat of three metres. 

However, there's a designer price tag attached to this look as it costs £120 a roll.

Stig Lindberg Prunus dinnerware

Prunus

Another distinctive design to add to the list of Stig Lindberg re-issues is the Prunus dinnerware

This design comes slightly later than many of his other re-issued ranges: it was originally manufactured between 1962 and 1974. However, its fruity pattern still looks fresh and is perfect for Spring. The range is still manufactured by Gustavsbergs Porslinsfabrik in Sweden. 

Prices start at £38.77 for a small plate.

Lanvin Chocolate vintage poster

Lanvin poster

A sweet piece of vintage advertising pulled from the archive courtesy of this Lanvin Chocolate poster.

It comes from the archives of Lanvin Chocolat whose rich advertising history also features an 1970 advert featuring Salvador Dali declaring himself crazy for the product. This particular piece features Red Riding Hood feeding the wolf with the chocolate and apparently dates from 1961. Its bright colour and childish style is just as charming today. 

The poster costs $14.99

Sagaform ceramic fish platter

Sagaform

This ceramic fish platter from Sagaform references both its geographical and design heritage. 

It's designed to bring a traditional Scandinavian platter of fish-based delicacies to your table while it also has a definite 1950s look, not dissimilar to Marianne Nilsson's Herring design dating from that decade and available from New House Textiles.

This platter is clearly intended for display as well as use, with a hole at the top enabling it to be hung up on the kitchen wall. Like Nilsson's design, it's also available on a jar – perfect for storing away your fishy delicacies. 

The platter costs £19.95.
