A bread box by Johan Verde


Yes, this breadbox costs more than 100 US dollars!
It is made of recycled silicone, and you roll down the front cover
and use it for cutting the bread. Smart.
Red, black and white.

Designer: Johan Verde, born in Norway in 1964.
I will learn more about this designer.
Here are some of his thoughts about design

As for the breadbox, I am not going to buy it.
Not enough bread in my house.
But there is something in the design that fascinates me.

The firm Kitch'n has a website http://www.kitchn.no/ where you
can look at other expensive and wonderfully designed items for
the kitchen, f.ex. in their online catalogue.
