Lighter vintage

Style: Helena. A considerably large laptop bag built for strength and durability. Even if you don't carry a laptop, this would still make a fabulous bag for work. VEGETABLE TANNED CRUNCH LEATHER is gorgeous crisp, crunch-leather with a unique high gloss shine and designer creases. Leather is one of those fantastic materials that can look better with a little age. Sure, brand new leather products do look nice but sometimes the old, much-loved look or vintage leather effect is just plain cooler. If you covet the look of old, comfortably worn-in leather you won't have to wait the years it takes for the look to develop naturally as the leather has been specially prepared so that it takes on that much coveted, fashionable vintage effect much more quickly. The antique colour is created by marbling darker shades over lighter hues for a subtle vintage look; this designer effect will be less prominent in darker colours. Then the more the bag is used, the more creases will appear on the surface of the leather; the marks from these creases will blend in over time adding to the unique character of the bag. To care for this type of leather we recommend the use of leather cream conditioner. Please remember that as leather is a natural product, the intensity of the colour will vary slightly from hide to hide during the dyeing process, making each tote totally unique. Double handles are elegantly rolled. An adjustable, detachable leather strap enables the bag to be worn over-the-shoulder or hands-free across-the-body. The bag contains a large laptop compartment with a separate removable laptop skin included (39.5x29x5cms) sandwiched between two further A4 sized compartments which contain handy pockets for mobile phone, credit cards and pen. The interior is fully lined and slightly padded for a touch of luxury. The bag opens wide for easy access. There is a handy zipped outer pocket on the rear of the bag. The base of the bag is flat with studded feet.      

1970's Minimalist classic sideboard and cabinet from Asko with beautifully crafted wood work, restored original ash wood exterior and original stained interior. Two leveled shelves on left side with 2 sliding draws for cutlery and napkins and a bottom space for extra storage. Asko, of Finland had an amazing line up of some of the leading Scandinavian designers of the 20th Century, including Tapio Wirkkala, Maija Heikinheimo, Voitto Haapalainen and of course Earo Aarnio – of ball chair fame, most notably. We recently restored our Asko set and was overwhelmed by the lighter Ash wood that came through. We kept all the interiors dark giving it a strong contrast. Staining wood was very common in the 60's. We prefer the natural wood grain.
