If you are a record collector, your significant other is a very special person. They are able to take and accept your love of 180 gram vinyl and the reality that it will be part of the family – always there and sounding real good. For years, the solution to your partner’s acceptance of your vinyl was to store it in either a backroom, basement, or in the living room using the IKEA Expedit shelving system.

The good people at Atocha Design raise the bar in vinyl storage with their “The Record Cabinet”. Finished in American Walnut and fashioned in the form of a bureau, this cabinet not only stores 95 LPs per drawer but it can also hold CDs as well as 7 inches vinyl. The price does not come low though. The cabinet retails at $6,000.

The spirit of De Stijl is still alive and well, as evidenced by this Mondrian-inspired watch cabinet which is soon to be released by the revered luxury goods purveyor Smythson, of Bond Street.

Part of an entire men’s collection for this fall, the cabinet is finished with a black pigskin leather exterior and contains a perpetual motion watch “rocker” that pulls out to reveal hidden storage at the cabinet’s rear.

White is the primary color of the drawers, offset by the Mondrian black grid.

Apart from providing storage for watches, the cabinet also stores accesories like belts, sunglasses, cufflinks, tie pins, key fobs and any other precious accessories one might have.

This isn’t a piano you can allow your kids to flounder with! As it is, Schimmel is the brand that is behind its creation; therefore, until your tot becomes an expert pianist, you dare not allow him/her touch it. Dubbed the K213, Schimmel chooses one of the most brittle yet elegant material; glass, to enclose the exterior of the instrument.

The K213 isn’t just elegant for its design as the quality of music it rendered is equally classy. The only place where you would find iron is beneath strings that produce the magical symphony. This piano is definitely not for the space drenched halls but has pride of place in rich homes and gatherings. It just soaks in the party atmosphere while on display.

In order to add that extra bit of shimmer to the dazzlingly opulent parties, it would cost the one an estimated $124,780 to own this glamorous piano.

Here is what an avant-garde throne looks like for the modern day kings. Created by Ted Nemeth, this throne flashes style with a lot of bling factor intact. Done in tooled leather and worked upon by a street artist, it retails for $5,150.
