This Goosebumps grey paw leopard print reversible quilt cover is a chic way to work leopard print. The single bed design is perfect for children’s rooms and comes in chartreuse yellow (left) as well as a blue colourway. It will look really smart on an adult’s bed if you use two single duvets, as the Scandinavians do. The cotton print is reduced 50 per cent from about €109 to €54.50, ex delivery from Australian-based Indie Art & Design (indie.com.au).

There is a new way to work leopard print and these elegant vases and wall vases from MiaFleur nail the Hollywood Regency reprise that’s happening in interiors. The leopard vase costs about €60 while the smaller wall vase costs about €36 from UK-based MiaFleur (00 44 116 298 6393 miafleur.com). Irish Times readers who use the code IT10 can buy either less 10 per cent. Offer ends September 22nd.

In 2012, Steinbeisser (steinbeisser.org) in Amsterdam launched its “Experimental Gastronomy” initiative, bringing renowned chefs and international artists together to realise a one-of-a-kind creative gastronomic event. It asked 35 artists to create unique and experimen- tal cutlery and dishware. They are now available to buy on Jouw Store (jouwstore.com). There are ice cream scoops that look like they should belong to Frankenstein and spoon forks made from bicycle keys. For sheer creative thinking, they are worth checking out.
