CB2 is the 'urban' little cousin of the US interiors giant that is Crate and Barrel. Offering modern design for the home, successful CB2 furniture and accessory shopping involves going for the little gems and simple pieces in metal and glass that their design team does so well and avoiding the misguided forays into ethno-exotica. After all, if you want a Himalayan Singing Bowl, you should probably go and get it from the Himalayas so you've got a story to go with it. If, on the other hand, you want some great stuff that's either quirky or classic for summer 2010 - including these rather odd little ring/finger plates - then take a trip to CB2 and stock up from the Mixed Material Six of the Best.
