We've seen some weird and wonderful iPhone add-ons in the past, but the Trumstand is perhaps the most extravagant of the lot. But if you fancy a piece of modern-meets-Victoriana, it could be just the job – at a price.

Aimee Wilder Gameland wallpaper
Aimee Wilder's love of a retro pattern is no secret: just take a look at her robot and cassette tape inspired wallpapers that we've previously featured. Her new Gameland wallpaper also looks to the past and is based on images of video games.
Mobile Evolution by Kyle Bean
This Mobile Evolution print by Kyle Bean is a simple but effective way to show how technology has changed over a relatively short period.
The Brighton based design has placed simplified models of the phones into a line, starting with the huge brick like forms of over 30 years ago and moving onto the more slimline devices of today.
If you like, snap it up now as it's a limited edition of 100.

Pure Evoke Mio by Orla Kiely – Abacus Flower Edition DAB digital radio
The follow up to the original Pure Mio, the Pure Evoke Mio Abacus Flower Edition by Orla Kiely throws in another of the retro-styled designs, plus a few new features to the digital radio itself.
Speaking about the new design, Kiely said: 'I chose the slate grey, Abacus Flower print for this radio as it contrasts well with the first radio and fits in with my passion for creating quality and functional down-to-earth designs that complement any home interior.'
eBay watch: 1970s JVC Videosphere television
It is something we have featured before, but this particular 1970s JVC Videosphere television is very cheap right now, so well worth as look.
An iconic design from 1970 and one that was inspired by the era of space exploration and the 2001: A Space Odyssey movie, but all accounts. Good got use on its stand, also good to use with the chain, hanging on a wall. Downside? You'll need to get it converted to use it in the modern digital world, unless you just want it for decoration.
It is described as being in 'original unrestored condition', generally being in 'very good above' condition, although there is 'one major crack' on the square base and the head of the antenna is missing, although it still works. So not perfect, but pretty good – and just £2.20 right now.
