Description
Our Nenon storage box is a low, rectangular gold box in MDF, with a separate lid and a lacquered, high gloss finish. It measures 15.5cm long, 11cm wide and 5cm tall, a size that suits the small things that otherwise wander about a home: rings and earrings, a watch, spare keys, hair clips and a few folded receipts. Look closely and the gold surface carries fine, irregular brush-like markings, so it reads as a crafted object rather than a flat block of colour. At 0.3KG it is light enough to lift from a shelf with one hand.
Because it stands only 5cm tall, it slips onto a bookshelf, sits on a dressing table without crowding a mirror, and rests neatly on a stack of coffee table books, where the gold catches light from a nearby window or lamp. On a desk it keeps paper clips, pins, a memory stick and a coiled charging cable out of sight; in a hallway it becomes the place for keys and loose change. It also makes a thoughtful gift box: put a piece of jewellery or a handwritten note in the box, and it stays part of the present.
The box is made from MDF, a dense board with no visible grain, which is why it takes a lacquer so evenly. The maker gives the finish as lacquered and high gloss, so the surface has a reflective sheen rather than a bare, absorbent face. Lift the lid away and the base has a raised inner rim over which the lid fits, while the interior is finished in a contrasting tone that makes gold jewellery easy to spot. For styling, set it on a pile of two or three books for a little height, or pair it with a small vase on a tray; its rectangular outline and clean corners bring a tidy line among softer shapes.
