Every week, Amber Bravo chooses one thing to totally obsess over on eBay. This week she finds some nice stuff for the kitchen by way of searching Vintage=>Dansk.
Why is it that every time you set out to look for one thing, you end up finding another. I really would like to buy a lounge chair for my living room, so that when I have people over, we don't all have to sit on the couch facing straight ahead, away from eachother. But it's hard to find something that isn't frumpy or a million dollars. When I get tired and disheartened from looking for chairs, I'll occasionally move to the smaller-ticket items—things that I also don't own but would like to. DUTCH OVEN, anyone? I would long-roast tagine recipes all the live-long day. It would be great. Vintage Dansk is pretty good place to start for subtle, yet bright kitchen ware. It can get a little heavy into hippie territory (which maybe I'm a little too okay with?), but if you buy sparingly, they can really add some color to your crockery.
