Shopping Around with Modernish

You can find, touch and feel some of my stuff at Siecle on Lordship Lane, East Dulwich.  I think it looks great. Even the rain abated and sun came out for the photos.

Family Fun

Reports on the Family Fair on Peckham Rye are not favourable: £5 for half an hour on a bouncy castle (admittedly a big one, but £5!)

You could splash out on this fairground attraction (click on shop link, left).  Displayed against Stuart Road Allotments...what more could you ask...look at those cabbages (...not available in the shop)!

Homewood

Some inspiration: Patrick Gwynne's Modernist home in Esher Surrey.  Pictures by ModernishZoe - you will have to go on the tour to see the inside as there were no photos allowed!

You also couldn't go wrong owning this book detailing other buildings in the UK in the Modernist style.

New things

A few nice things which are for sale...

...something for the pipe smoker in your life (by Anita Nylund for Jie Gantofta)

...something for the good-living strawberry fan...(Arabia)

and any zoologists with a passion for ceramics should love this cruet set...(Hornsea)

Under the Weather?

A great series of get well soon cards I recently found.  From the 1960s I guess.  It's probable the effect of getting of these cards had the desired rehabilitating effect and the patient is still in robust health to this day, aged 123 and a quarter...

Southbank Update

Unfortunately this is "the face" of Modernish, after Di Caprio and Depp dropped out! Apparently a man more suited to selling cheese than midcentury wares...cruel...but maybe fair...

We met some lovely people at the Southbank and sold some great design items. One or two deals have happened subsequently (more of in future posts).  Top selling items: Framed London Bus Posters, money boxes and Scandinavian wares: mostly Figgjo Flint and Rorstrand.
