Furniture inspired by London’s transport system is now available to purchase – but shoppers have been left shocked at the price.

The London Transport Museum’s store offers a range of homeware with some furnishings costing more than £2,000.

Listed on their website as a “popular product”, a three-seater Farringdon sofa, which takes its name from the famous London station, is priced at an astonishing £3,000.

But a black side table embellished with the TFL logo is sold at a fraction of the price and comes in at £250.

As well as chairs and tables, mugs and oven gloves are also available to Tube lovers.

Some items can be picked up for as little as £10.

The made-to-order pieces are created with the same materials that are used for the seats on London’s Tube carriages.

Other viewers were quick to comment on the image – and some loved the idea.

One person wrote: “Ok it’s going to be a stupid amount of money but omg the purple.”

Another added: “I would buy that in a heartbeat if I could – that one and all the other lines.”

“Where can we find this… monstrosity,” asked someone else.

A fourth viewer said: “I’d consider getting that cushion. But not at 200?!”

“On the other hand you have the excuse to never have to clean it. You know, to be authentic,” wrote another user.
