Round Bread Warmer and Seagrass Basket with Plant Design
Warm Bread, Warmer Feelings
Look, we're not suggesting that a bread warmer will solve your existential anxieties, but there's something rather splendid about pulling a fresh loaf from the oven and keeping it properly toasty for breakfast. This terracotta warmer, engraved with a rather fetching plant motif, slots neatly into a handwoven seagrass basket to create what is quite possibly the most civilised way to serve bread. The terracotta plate naturally insulates without any fussy electronics, while the basket itself is sustainably crafted by Fair Trade artisans. It's the sort of thing people actually notice at the table.
Why Choose Our Bread Warmer and Basket
Natural Temperature Control: Terracotta has been keeping things warm since ancient times. We've simply made it prettier, with an engraved plant design that manages to be both understated and gorgeously tactile.
Ethically Handmade: Each basket is woven by skilled artisans using sustainably grown seagrass and jute. No two are identical, which is the polite way of saying slight variations occur, but that's rather the point with proper handicrafts.
Looks Rather Good: The natural palette works with virtually any kitchen aesthetic. It's that rare object that manages to be functional and rather nice to look at simultaneously.
Made to Last: With minimal care, this becomes a weekend ritual you'll return to for years.
Product Details
Dimensions: Bread warmer is approximately 9 inches round and half an inch tall. Basket measures 11 inches round and 3.25 inches tall.
Materials: Bread warmer is 100 percent terra cotta. Basket is 100 percent seagrass and jute wool.
Colour: Natural.
Care Instructions: Wipe the bread warmer clean with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Not dishwasher safe. For the basket, dust or vacuum regularly. Wipe gently with a damp cloth if needed, but avoid rubbing stains as this may loosen the natural fibres. Whitewash can be removed with pressure water or by hand. Keep away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fade, and do not place the basket in the oven. Always ensure it dries properly after any water exposure.
Rather good things deserve a home. Consider this one rather found.
There is no warehouse. That is rather the point, and it does have consequences.
Every brand here packs and posts its own orders, in its own boxes, with tracked delivery. The brands you can see are the ones that ship to your country, so your parcel is usually making a fairly short journey: a potter in Bristol posting to Britain, a studio in California posting within America.
Which does mean that an order from three brands arrives as three parcels, posted by three different people, on three different days. Whether that is an inconvenience or a small extended birthday rather depends on your temperament. It also means three lots of postage, shown before you pay, because we would rather mention it here than at the till.
Roughly how long
UK Domestic: 2–5 business days
Coming from further afield: 7–14 days. Usually quicker, but let's not prmise and it will be a lovely surprise!
Estimates, not promises. Each brand sends its own tracking, so you will be kept extremely well
Need help? Just ask.Our small team is here.
Fourteen days from delivery to tell us you have changed your mind, and fourteen more to get it back to us. No reason required, and we will not make you give one.
You are allowed to open it and try it on. Handle it as you would in a shop, and we will not quibble. Handle it as you would a rental car and we may deduct something for the difference.
Return postage is yours to pay, because the brand at the other end is a workshop rather than a warehouse. Some cover it themselves, and if yours does you will not be charged. Whatever you paid us to send it out, we refund either way, and the money goes back the way it came within fourteen days of the parcel reaching the brand.
A few things cannot come back, and only these: anything made or personalised to your order, sealed beauty products once the seal is broken, and anything perishable.
If something arrives damaged, faulty or not as described, none of the above applies. It costs you nothing, and we sort it.
Just email mail@brixbailey.com — we'll guide you through it.
