A set of four products of Berlin creative minds in only one picture. And my beloved raw wall in the living room serves as the background. I am particularly fond of this setting we made during the last photo shoot with @theresagrieben and @carolinabuzio. The "punker planter lady" I already owned and I love the character of that face. It matches prettily with that plant (don't you think Mia @mosskeramik?) The two golden beauties are vintage (well... what a surprise :). The adjustable golden table lamp is from Swiss-German producer Temde - the clock was made by Junghans. For me it's really the mix of four totally different styles that make the look so fresh. What do you think? . Shop link in bio . . . . . #lekosmosberlin #funcooperations #temde #vintagelamp #modernlamp #brasslamp #brass #bkkmakes #berlinkreativkollektiv (hier: Berlin Mitte)

Attention, attention X-Mas IS approaching: There is only one day left to order you X-Mas gifts and have them delivered on time if you live in Europe. If you want to order your X-Mas gifts and still be able to present them under the Christmas tree, please hurry! I will try to make it extra quick but would need to ship them on Saturday 16th latest. After that, it's of course still an option to present a voucher of what you are offering :) #lastminutegifts #betterlatethannever #lekosmosberlin #vintagegifts #vintagelove #xmasshopping #lastcall #vintageshop #bkkmakes #wohnkonfetti #solebich #atmine #berlin (hier: Berlin Mitte)

Here comes - as promised - another pretty picture of our combined photo shoot with Theresa and Carolina. My kitchen board is usually crammed with spices and kitchen appliances, water bottles and coasters. But the photo setup with the pretty picture inspired me to cram some of the stuff away elsewhere. (Btw I am a total Kitchen-Tetris-Pro with many many drawers in a relatively small kitchen and a LOT of dishes :) The lovely fish picture is from @theresagrieben The picture credit goes to @carolinabuzio The lamp is of course from Le Kosmos Berlin - and in the shop. . . . . #dishlover #lekosmosberlin #vintageshop #kitchentetris #interiorinspiration #vintagekitchen #fish #krups (hier: Berlin Mitte)

A plantstand with mosaic tiles in black and white, hairpin legs in gold and a rim in gold too. A 60s plant stand at its zbest or coffee table or tea table or cocktail table or nightstand... And - as the legs can easily be removed and reinstalled - also an article that easily ships worldwide - what a treat. . . . . . . #lekosmosberlin #vintage #plantstand #flowertable #coffeetable #flowerbench #table #60s #GDR #eichler #eastgerman #furniture (hier: Berlin Mitte)

I have come to love the transparency and warmth of these typical 70s glazes on white clay or porcelain. Its the mix of honey or mustard yellow, a warm dark orange, sometimes a dark chocolate brown and mocca that makes these randomly combined sets of dishes so intriguing. They were produced by Melitta in West-, by Colditz and Torgau in East Germany. My partner still despises them. So every piece I find, I have to get... and to let go again - still hoping that constant dripping... . . . . . #vintageloverproblems #lekosmosberlin #melitta #colditz #torgau #bkkmakes #westgermanpottery #wgp #unitedcolorsofeurope #unitedcoorsofetsy #orange #crazy #70sdishes #midcenturymodern #midcentury #vintagelove #vintageshop (hier: Berlin Mitte)

I am starting the week-end and also the X-Mas countdown with something silver and cool: This desk lamp is a GDR production of the 70s done by Elma (or the lamp design might be called Elma which is much prettier I think) that formerly came in bright tomato red. Then... with a little effort (and some more time to scrub off the old damaged varnish) it turned out much more interesting I think. Now it shines in a variation of polished silver aluminum from the top to pale grey silver on the toe. An industrial one-of-a-kinder.

X-MAS shoppers ⠀ ⠀ Le Kosmos Berlin offers worldwide shipping from Germany to the US, New Zealand, Brazil, Europe... Most of the items ship through Airmail anyway. But if you are planning for holiday season and for a timely arrival of your gifts please note:⠀ ⠀ EU Shipping - last order date: December 16th⠀ US Shipping - last order date: December 10th⠀ ⠀ For those who always start last minute (like me for instance:) there is still the option to buy a gift card, ⠀ or I'll send a pdf voucher of your purchase (showing your present that is on-the-way) via email⠀ ⠀ Btw the big orange vase is a 70s lampshade made of cased glass that was produced by Peill & Putzler in orange, green and white. The ideal color combination for the holiday season and even prettier as a lamp (available in the shop soon) it doesn't hold the water very well though and I need a new paper background without stains⠀ ⠀ #lekosmosberlin #xmasgift #xmasshopping #bkkmakes #vintage #vintageshop #vintageinterior #berlin

I have been wanting to do a photo shoot in my flat for a while and well... if we hadn’t fixed the date long before knowing what do do, which light, angle, theme and article, I might still just think of the plan and dream on. Thanks to @theresagrieben and @carolinabuzio we just went through and I am VERY happy with the results.

The producer of this news rack is unknown to me, but my first association to it was - it would match the Kartell design products very well - and the transparent chair of Kartell you might know is called "Louis ghost" (and its damn pretty!)⠀ ⠀ So, here comes our vintage friend of newspapers: ⠀ ⠀ Racky ghost!⠀ ⠀ in the shop and shop link in bio :)⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #lekosmosberlin #vintagetreasures #newsrack #vintageinterior #magazinerack #zeitungsständer #louisghost #bkkmakes #vintage #etsyshop #70s #interiorinspiration #midcentury

Of course, I have a huge collection of vintage 60s and 70s German ceramics and pottery in my home. I might say this is one of the reasons I started my business anyway.⠀ ⠀ So... speaking of vases, these are really special finds with their patterned, striped or crocodile skin inspired surfaces. And after enjoying them for 4 weeks, I am now ready to let them go...⠀ ⠀ White matte Mid Century Modern 60s German bisque vases (this would make a really long German word if I translated it) in pure white porcelain with an embossed geometric decor.⠀ ⠀ Prettiest in a set!⠀ and... in the shop⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #lekosmosberlin #vintage #wgp #westgermanpottery #fatlavavase #vase #fatlava #germanbisque #bisque #midcentury (hier: Berlin Mitte)
