Why hide an object you use every day?
Most bins are made to be tolerated: thin plastic lids, pedals that squeak, a bag rim folded over the edge. We make vessels with furniture proportions, materials that age well and mechanisms you can repair, so the one in your kitchen can sit beside the cabinetry it shares a room with.
Furniture proportions
Sized and finished to sit beside cabinets, counters and stone.
Honest materials
Solid wood, cast stone, steel through and through. No veneers.
Quiet mechanics
Damped lids and weighted bases. Nothing clatters or slides.
Repairable
Every moving part is fastened, not glued, and sold as a spare.
Six vessels, three rooms
Where they live
Beyond steel
Powder-coated steel for the kitchen. Cast stone where weight matters. Stoneware for wet rooms. Solid oak and walnut wherever a hand or foot touches. Bronze that darkens with use.
A spring should never be the reason a vessel is thrown away.
Pedals, dampers, hinges, feet and buckets are fastened with stainless screws. Each is sold as a spare at close to cost, and replaces with the hex key in the box.
