Window shopping heaven
I've just been happily discovering the world of museum stores. Here's a selection of items that I enjoyed looking at. I'll do another museum store post sometime. Fabulous places for window shopping! I think out of all these here, I'd have to list the V&A Museum shop as my favourite.
From the Metropolitan Museum of Art shop: Love paperweight
Rug computer mouse pads
Faberge egg candleholders
From the Victoria & Albert Museum shop:
Designed by Thelermont Hupton this earthenware red cup has two faces, one side a mug for your mates and the other presents your ‘best china’ for your granny.
The cult posters in T-shirt form. Cool! I haven't seen the T-shirts before, only the posters. They also come in long sleeve sweatshirt style.
This mug features Lee Miller's untitled Woman with Parakeets c.1930, one of a series of three drawings that she made reflecting on acceptable roles for women. Made from bone china.
From the Bauhaus Museum store:
Boat toy by Alma Buscher (designed in 1924)

My parents have a rug mousepad! I told them to keep it so that I can use it in a doll house for my kids one day, when I actually have some...heh.
I love the Mouse Pad - and the Umbrella and the Outline Vase and the Two-faced Cup/mug. What an interesting selection!
I agree, the umbrella mouse pad is cute - perfect for a doll house. Museum shops are really interesting places:)
