Fred Ingrams, RG friend and local painter, has spent the last seven years painting The Fens, perhaps the least loved landscape in Britain!

I think the pestle and mortar is a design marvel! Although they have varied dramatically in size and material throughout their long and impressive history, they are simple, timeless and, above all, amazingly enduring.

The door handle - an architectural fetish with an unambiguous purpose! We asked RichingsGreetham friend and renowned Norwich-based Architect, Charles Emberson, what design is top of his list when it comes to door handles.

The Vitsoe 606 Shelving System has become somewhat of a timeless design classic! It is simple, unobtrusive and as unassuming as possible. It is undeniably useful and works well in my barn.
