The store just opened in the old Ellingsen hardware store near Reykjavík harbour. "We're concentrating on high-quality design, and all the best and most innovative products in furniture, lighting, gifts, books and magazines," explains store manager Ólöf Jakóbína Ernudóttir. Among the things you'll find in the store are objects from Dutch label Moooi including the experimental designs of Marcel Wanders. "On the other hand we stock designer classics from labels like Vitra and designer Tom Dixon, who recently launched his own product line." Lovers of design books will have a field day as Saltfélagið has a fabulous range for any taste conoisseur. But that's not all - the store has an in-house café which is a welcome addition to this area of town that offers few watering holes. Saltfélagið is set to bring a whole new dimension to Icelandic homes this winter. - amb News in English Shopping and fashion Mest lesið Öryggisráðið ákveður að taka yfir Gasa-borg Erlent Keppa við Kínverja og Rússa um að koma kjarnakljúfi til tunglsins Erlent Nauðsynlegt að fólk fái úrræði til að vernda sig frá djúpfölsunum Innlent Skjálfti fannst á höfuðborgarsvæðinu Innlent Dvalarleyfi langtum dýrara í hinum Norðurlöndunum Innlent Rússar enn að fá „samstöðustyrki“ en Úkraínumenn ekki Erlent Sektaður fyrir að aka á 321 kílómetra hraða Erlent Lögreglurannsókn á banaslysi í Brúará „svo til“ lokið Innlent Enginn handtekinn eftir hópslagsmálin Innlent Gufunesmálið: „Þetta átti aldrei að fara svona“ Innlent
