Know before you buy
The holder measures 5 inches in diameter and stands 8.5 inches tall. Its extra-tall profile is designed to accommodate longer cooking tools like whisks and spatulas without tipping.
Yes, it is crafted from heavy-gauge, hand-glazed steel. This construction is designed to be sturdy and long-lasting, though it should be handled with care to maintain the hand-painted finish.
Absolutely. While it is a staple for kitchen organization, its size and aesthetic make it an excellent vessel for storing crafting tools, paintbrushes, or even as a decorative vase for dried florals.
To preserve the hand-painted Courtly Check pattern and the bronzed stainless steel rim, we recommend hand-washing with mild soap and drying immediately. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could scratch the glaze.
The holder is made of heavy-gauge steel, which provides a stable, weighted base. However, it does not come with a rubberized bottom, so you may want to place it on a soft surface or coaster if you have delicate stone or wood countertops.
