Ovens… not sexy right? WRONG...!
I learnt about this recently, La Cornue’s Château cooker costing £15,000 ($30,000) and designed in this stunningly garish Provence yellow enamel, with a nickel and satin stainless steel trim – IT WORKS FOR SOME STRANGE REASON!
All the products in the Château cooker range are built to order and there are only about a few hundred cookers manufactured and distributed around the world making especially desirable.
Trims for Château ovens are available in brass, copper, chrome or nickel and in a palette of twenty three enamel colours and a stainless steel or copper body. The best bit is that you can even customise your own Château oven with a personal touch and design your own custom colour or decorations.
This bed linen may look a little posher than your average Debenhams special… it is! It is in fact truly bespoke and created by Charlotte Thomas who hand make every piece of linen to individual specification, using the finest super 150’s Merino wool spun with genuine 22 carat gold, luxuriously backed with fine Indian hand-loom silk jacquard.
Some of the rarest fabrics in the world go into these and therefore availability is truly limited to the mighty fortunate… and rich!
An individual pillow case can go for anything from £1200 each!!!
Orders take up to 12 weeks from a bespoke consultation.

Spanish designer Jaume Tresserra has come up with a delightful Carlton House Butterfly table. Perfectly designed for storing your correspondence, car keys and note pads.
The price tag of £11,500 ($23,000) is merited by the quality of the workmanship. The design is based on the traditional Carlton House desk, commissioned by the Prince of Wales in the late 18th century and named after the Prince Regent’s London residence - Carlton House.
The table can be made to order in light or dark walnut and includes two spectacular drop lids. The curved wings can be propped up using silver plated legs, which are designed to mimic butterfly antennae. Each desk can take up to ten weeks to craft.
Jaume Tresserra made his name when his Casablanca armchair appeared in the original Tim Burton Batman movie. He is now widely regarded as one of the world’s most sought after interior designers. If you’re looking to book him in for an interior revamp - bear in mind you probably won’t get much change out of £100,000 ($200,000).
