I came across a shoppe selling jewellery called iconic the other day.

This sparked a conversation between 4 of us on. If you had a shop called "Iconic' selling iconic things. What would you want in it? So far we have

Eames lounge chair
Egg chair by Arne Jacobsen
Glugge jug
Duralit toaster
Smeg pastel coloured fridge
Marilyn Monroe dress from 7 year itch

What else would you expect to see in the iconic shop?

Note just in case its needed. This is lighthearted

Well, to be pedantic, surely it would look like this

Ooh, I love those shops!!! Usually a bit squiffy on cheap Greek rose when visiting.

I don’t think @GertrudeKerfuffle has been given the credit her post deserves.
