Retro Roller Skate Revamped!

By Lee Franklin

This Spring we decided to revamp our Retro Roller Skate design .... and break the mould by introducing round coasters! The design really was crying out to be on a round coaster - I'm not sure why it has taken us so long to realise, but thankfully we did and we are so pleased with the results! The 80's Roller Boot now sits on a clean crisp white background and the colour palette has been tweaked to be totally 80s-tastic!

If you'd like to scatter some 80s nostalgia across your coffee table, Retro Roller Skate Coaster Sets can be found here!

Retro Roller Skate can also be found on compact mirrors in a wide selection of colours;
