When you think of cork, what comes to mind?
1970s cork place mats? A nice bottle of Champagne being opened? The type of Australian hat only ever acceptable at a fancy dress party? Whatever it is, it probably isn't stylish, well-designed gifts, accessories and homeware.
At MOXON we like to celebrate simple, humble materials, and cork is just that. Not only does it look great, cork is sustainable and extremely versatile and can be found in all sorts of products from trainers to furniture, so we've put together a list of some of our top cork products.
British designer Ilse Crawford has teamed up with Ikea to produce the Sinnerlig collection which includes a cork fruit bowl and this beautiful table and bench.
Sprout is a watch with a cork strap by Nordstrom. This is a great on-trend Summer accessory. We love the green stitching!
This range of cork-backed notebooks is so different from the norm that you will never confuse your notepad with someone else's again. We especially love the cork pattern on the yellow grid book. Look at the image for a few seconds and let your eyes be confused.
So the obvious choice here would be to list cork wedges, with the 1970's revival being a huge 2015 trend, but we saw these and really enjoyed the reversal of materials. Vans have mixed it up and used the cork as the main fabric, rather than using it in the sole, resulting in an awesome looking trainer. We love it!
Vans have made an awesome feature of the great texture and pattern found in this wonderful material!
This beautiful round mantel clock by Ilias Ernst for Puik Art, Amsterdam, has an extended right angle allowing the solid cork clock to stand on any flat surface.
We love the random colour fleck in this cork, making each bag unique.
These contemporary salt + pepper shakers are produced from mouth blown glass with a solid cork base. Inspired by a buoy in the ocean, the base is slightly domed so the shakers roll slightly giving them an interesting and playful aesthetic.
Czech designer Martin Jakobsen has created these beautiful storage jars with spherical cork ball lids
