Smithers, Celebrities & A-List Styling—Oh My!
Greetings, one and all! , taking a much-needed break from all things festive—there’s only so much mulled wine and carol singing I can stomach before I start craving my usual miserable git normality.
It’s been a crazy season at Smithers HQ—we’ve almost trebled our database of glorious customers and followers. But here’s the kicker: among them are some proper A-list celebs. And no, I’m not talking about reality TV Muppets famous for being famous—I mean the real deal.
Now, while I’d love to dish the dirt, we pride ourselves on professional discretion at Smithers. So, no naming and shaming (ladies, you know who you are), and besides—I quite like my bank balance lawsuit-free.
But what I can do is give you the inside scoop on the fabulous Smithers pieces our Hollywood friends have been snapping up. Consider this your VIP pass to celebrity styling—without the paparazzi hassle.
🦇 First up—The Batman Comic Drawers
Our very first A-list sale? Purchased By a French Footballer with way out haircuts: The Batman Comic Drawers. No surprises there—this statement piece oozes comic strip cool and brings just the right amount of nostalgia meets sophistication.
A classic French bombe-style chest with a bold comic book exterior, it’s got chrome handles smoother than Batman’s rubber suit and more character than some of Gotham’s villains. Limited stock left, so don’t fight the temptation—bring a slice of superhero styling home. 
🎩 The Gold-Plated Monocles Cabinet – Fit for 007 Himself
Now, here’s a true Bond moment for you. Our Gold-Plated Monocles Cabinet was purchased by none other than James Bond 007 himself—well, the legend who played him. Inspired by the opulence, intrigue, and sophistication of the Bond films, this cabinet is a statement piece worthy of MI6 headquarters or a billionaire villain’s lair.
The man behind the purchase? The iconic S.C., a true gentleman of the screen and a Bond legend who, sadly, is no longer with us. But let’s be honest—style like his never truly dies.
This cabinet is a true showstopper, combining luxury with intrigue, just like the Bond franchise itself. And while S.C. secured his, there’s still a chance to bring home a piece of cinematic history before they’re gone for good.
🤖 Robots—Because Celebs Love a Bit of Sci-Fi
Next up? Robots. Purchased by a former Dr Who Star from Canada: You know my deep-rooted love for all things robotic, and it turns out I’m not alone. One of our Robot Families is now living the high life in a rather fancier setting than Smithers HQ.
Sadly, Baby Bot has sold out, but Mum and Dad are still up for grabs. Their eye-catching colours work just as well in minimalist interiors as they do in bold, vibrant spaces. Adopt a robot before they’re gone!
🎬 The Vintage Feature Presentation Sign
Even I had to pinch myself when this sale came through, as he’s slim and shady? One of our Feature Presentation Signs is now illuminating a celebrity cinema room across the pond.
We’ve got a killer range of retro signs—Whiskey Bar, Cold Beer, Bakery—but this one? Pure Hollywood glamour. If you want cinema vibes with a celebrity twist, you know what to do.
🐶 Nautical French Bulldog Cushions—A Surprise A-Lister Favourite
Of all the things I thought we’d ship to red carpet royalty, a French Bulldog Sailor Cushion wasn’t high on my list. But here we are, ticking off bucket-list moments! Turns out our quirky, high-quality cushions have star-studded appeal—from Labradors and Pugs to Tigers, Giraffes, and Union Jacks. Even Kevin McCloud from Grand Designs says you can never have enough cushions, so who am I to argue?
🪑 The Devalle Button Chair—For Those Who Appreciate Style
Our quirky bucket-seat leather chair has made its way into the home of an incredibly stylish actress, who stared as Snow-White? The Devalle Button Chair takes classic Chesterfield vibes and gives them a modern furniture twist—ideal for vintage-meets-contemporary-living.
⛽ The Petrol Pump Cabinet—Now in an A-Lister’s Mansion
Yep, you read that right. One of our retro Petrol Pump Cabinet, in the home of a famous American basketball player L/J Made from solid iron, standing at 1.8m tall, and featuring a working Esso light, this cabinet is retro styling at its finest. If you love vintage décor that makes a statement, it doesn’t get better than this.
🎖 The Smithers Seal of Approval
Say what you want about celebrities, but one thing’s for sure—they’ve got damn good taste. Between them, they’ve put together a pretty enviable Smithers collection, and I reckon they nailed it.
But here’s the truth—it doesn’t matter if our clients are from hollywood or Harlow, we value every single one of you legends. There’s something strangely satisfying about sharing a common appreciation for great design, whether you’re an A-lister, a collector, or just someone with a keen eye for the unique.
Let’s be honest—we’re all nosey sods at heart, so I’ll be back soon with more celebrity styling updates. Until then, wet your appetite, make your A-list purchase, and if you need decor advice, just holler.
Now if you’ll excuse me, David Beckham’s just left me a voicemail about festive drinks next week… 🍸
Until next time my friends,
Mr Smithers.
