Good news for lovers of the Scandinavian homeware company iittala: January 18th marked the opening of the first London iittala shop at 126 Regent Street. The entire range in production is on display, including classic pieces by Alvar Aalto and Kaj Franck. Visit at 126 Regent Street (tel +44 (0) 207 287 5600); or go to iittala.com:

San Francisco garden/curiosity store Paxton Gate specialized in slightly macabre wares before the whole skull/death motif went mainstream. It’s the go-to place for mounted butterflies, moths, tarantulas; taxidermy jackaloupe and mice; sea urchins and starfish. They also carry gardening tools and odds and ends such as bell jars, journals, jewelery. Well worth a visit if you are in SF; otherwise go to paxtongate.com.
Below: Ostrich eggs; $33 each:

Goth-meets-pirate is not a look I usually seek out, but I am hankering after these ceramics from Finnish Risto Kokko Design. For further images, go to daxhund.fi
