Tchochkes

Imagine an online store in the world of Salvador Dali, where picture frames bend with corners and shirts cover tables. details - produkte + ideen is a store for the surrealist in all of us. Katrin Sonnleitner, of sock on a rock fame, sent me an email letting me know that she’s selling a puzzle doili (below) there.

The tableshirt (above) is by Fernando Brizio and costs 128 Euro’s. I would put a long thin vase with a single flower in the center of the neck.

The product selection is not especially wide. Mainly small tchochkes and some chairs. All of the pieces are clean and have a dramatic irreverent appeal.

Up the cups (below) are by the Icelandic designer, hrafnkell birgisson. I just looked at his main site, and this guy has done some very neat stuff. I hope to get some jpegs of his work, so I can write more about him soon.

The prices are what one would expect for small runs industrial design by artists. This is not your Philip Stark at Target, this is your future Philip Stark before he or she becomes a household name. The pieces have been well chosen and the style is consistent. Everything had a functional value set into the design.

Yvonne Schroeder did the corner frames (below). The prices start at 198 Euro’s.

What a great way to show off a panoramic picture.

Mind you, The Pecker by Patrick Frey & Markus Boge, (shown above) had the best name and simply had to be mentioned.

The shop is in English and German, and they ship worldwide. The shipping cost depends on the weight of the item.
