Key Features
- Oak lid. It doubles as a chopping board.
- Holds at least two loaves. Without dominating the bench.
- Powder-coated matte finish. In Liquorice or Mushroom.
- Rectangular. So it sits flush in a corner or against a wall.
- 33cm (L) x 18cm (D) x 21cm (H). 1.45kg.
Pūrē Standard
- It replaces the plastic bag, which is the actual point. Bread in plastic sweats and goes mouldy; bread left out goes stale in a day. A closed metal box with a timber lid is the old solution because it is the one that works.
- Real oak, not a laminate or a veneer. It is a genuine timber board you can cut on, so the lid is a second product rather than a decorative panel.
- Bread kept well is bread not thrown out. Food waste is the quiet part of a low-tox kitchen, and a good loaf is expensive.
- They made it smaller when customers said so. Seed & Sprout note on their own listing that the box was reduced from 35 x 22 x 24cm after feedback. Shrinking your own product because it took up too much bench is not a decision most brands make.
- Where we would like more. The finish is powder-coated matte, but Seed & Sprout do not publish the base metal or the country of manufacture for this one.

Frequently asked
How much bread does it hold?
At least two loaves, without taking over the bench. It measures 33cm long by 18cm deep by 21cm high.
Does the lid really work as a chopping board?
Yes. It is a solid oak lid, so you can slice on it and tip the crumbs straight back in.
What is it made from?
A powder-coated metal body with a matte finish and a solid oak lid. Seed & Sprout do not publish the base metal for this one, so we cannot be more specific than that.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the outside with a damp cloth, tip out the crumbs, and give it a gentle hand wash for a full clean. Dry it before reassembling.
Why does it look smaller than older photos?
Because it is. Seed & Sprout reduced it from 35 x 22 x 24cm after customers said it took up too much bench space.
Why not just keep bread in a plastic bag?
Bread in plastic sweats and goes mouldy, and bread left out goes stale in a day. A closed box with a timber lid is the old solution because it is the one that works.
