When we launched Remodelista a few years ago, it was almost impossible to source well-made, classic European-style household goods (in fact, I used to buy wooden brushes in London at Labour & Wait and carry them back in my suitcase). A lot has changed; West Elm, Williams-Sonoma, Terrain, Crate & Barrel, as well as a number of smaller online outfits now offer products from Germany, the UK, and Switzerland. Here are 10 products we own, use, and swear by at Remodelista:
Above: Made in Germany, the Toilet Brush Set by Redecker is $34 at the Joinery.
Above: The classic Wire Soap Dish from Terrain is $18.
Above: Organic Cotton Scrub Cloths are $20 for a set of three at Terrain.
Above: The Redecker Feather Duster is $24.95 at Crate & Barrel.
Above: The German-made Wesco Singleboy 3.4-Gallon Trash Can is $129.95 at Crate & Barrel.
