Desny Table Lamp
What Restoration Hardware wishes they were. We just stumbled upon Manufactum, a German housewares site that sells only the best, classic designs and avoids "the proliferation of paler imitations, produced by unimaginative competitors at the lowest possible price."
We won't say anymore because you have to click through and gaze upon the awesomeness of this collection. While we haven't purchased anything as of yet, but they ship around the world and prices look reasonable, especially for things you'd never otherwise find. Jump below for a few of our favorites...
FYI, the website link doesn't work, and clicking on the name of the company takes you to Wikipedia.

I work for a UK company with a UK based server's that automatically defaults to Google.co.uk. ANYWAY... on Google.uking "Manufactum International" I discovered they have several different websites: UK, Deutschland (Germany), Oesterreich (Austria), Schweitz (Switzerland) and International. Do the different sites offer different cool products? Stay tuned!

Yes indeed. Different products on the different sites.

Wow, those Red Wing boots are 168 pounds which means $336. But if you go to the Red Wing site, they are a steal at $189! That's messed up.

I buy from Manufactum Switzerland. A tad expensive but great quality and service. The different sites offer the same products give or take a few.
They have products that you can't get anywhere else but for products available elsewhere, I suggest you do your research like Kurt has done.
I love their printed catalog too and end up lusting over some items some I totally have no use for but nevertheless pretty.
