BDM September 2023

Although the city isn't my place to live, I love to visit sometimes.

Brussels Design Market is a good occasion for me.

It looks like the collectable design era is moving to 60's, 70's and 80's,

colours are getting more vivid every other addition....

Is so different from our first visit in 2014?

Brussels Design Market

To my big surprise we went to Brussels Design Market!

We bought our preview tickets in March but the event got cancelled twice.

This time a much smaller selection of vintage design and less visitors.

A beautiful graphic design by Walter Cremers... 

I really liked the pattern on a ceramic plate... made by Egersund Norway

Brussels Design Market

Today we visited Brussels Design Market again.
They claim to be the largest vintage market in Europe...

We only bought the Richard Lind planters underneath here.

vintage design market in Brussel

Today we went to Europe's biggest vintage design market in Brussel.
And we bought just two things (big smile).

A wooden toy, a crane from the fifties and a ceramic plate from the seventies.
You'll get to see some photos later...

Return the Sender

Yes, the RT20 radio has been delivered yesterday and we handed over de SK55.

A loose contact in the turntable was causing volume problems

although the radio part was working perfectly.

We're really lucky we bought the SK55 and RT20 from this man.

He knows an electrician (elektrieker) who can fix these oldies.

The seller isn't charging us extra money for the repairs and delivery.

A welcome rarity nowadays ☆

Our New Chairs

Often you can find Nim lying on one of the chairs at the dining table.

You can see her lying on the left black chair.

We bought some "new" vintage seafoam DSX Eames chairs.

I just love the seafoam colour!
