Material
Handcrafted from stoneware, with a turned sapele hardwood lid finished with natural citrus oil. The oil helps protect the timber from moisture and food waste.

Design
Designed to collect vegetable peelings, coffee grounds and everyday food scraps, this kitchen compost pot keeps food waste in one place as you cook. The wooden lid covers the contents between uses.
Vertical ribbing around the outside and a 2.5 cm (1") rim give a good grip when lifting and emptying the pot.
It’s made from the same stoneware as The House Pot – Stoneware and our Utensil Pots, and shares their quiet, handmade character.

Style advice from Mark
Everyday kitchen objects deserve some thought. This is a pot you’ll use several times a day, so it should be something you’re happy to leave out. The stoneware and sapele sit naturally on stone or timber worktops, bringing warmth and texture to the kitchen.

Craftsmanship
The stoneware pot is made by hand in a British pottery. Each sapele lid is turned separately to fit.

Use Case
Use as a countertop compost bin or food waste caddy for collecting kitchen scraps before transferring them to your compost heap or food waste collection bin. Keep it beside your preparation area, with enough space above to lift the lid. The wide opening makes it easy to sweep in peelings and offcuts as you cook.

Finish Notes
The stoneware pot is dishwasher-safe. After around 6 dishwasher cycles, a fine crackle pattern may appear in the glaze inside the pot. This does not affect how the pot performs, and it adds to its earthy character.
The sapele lid should be hand washed only. Re-oil it occasionally with a food-safe oil to keep the timber protected.
As handmade pieces, each pot may vary subtly in colour, glaze and texture, and each lid in grain and tone.
