Description
This tomato ice bucket brings a cheerful splash of red to the drinks table, with a double-walled body, a lift-off lid and a pair of matching tongs. It is shaped like a ripe tomato, glossy red all over, with soft ridges running down from the top and a green leaf and stalk sitting on the lid. The leaf is silicone and the stalk makes a handy knob for lifting the lid. Inside, the bowl is white, and it holds approximately 750ml of ice, enough to keep a round of drinks topped up. It stands 14.8cm tall and 16cm across, and at about 254g it is light to carry from the freezer to the table.
It is at home on a kitchen worktop, a sideboard or a home bar, wherever you pour cold drinks. Fill it before guests arrive and it keeps ice to hand for cocktails, mocktails, soft drinks or a jug of water, so nobody has to keep running back to the freezer. The tongs let everyone help themselves without reaching in with their fingers, which makes serving easy and hygienic. It is a playful piece of barware with a bit of humour, and it still does a proper, practical job every time you fill it.
The bucket and lid are made from polypropylene plastic, and the double-walled construction works with the lid to help keep ice frozen for longer. The tongs are polypropylene too, in a matching red, with ridged tips for a good grip on each cube, and they measure about 10.8cm long. To care for it, wipe the bucket, lid and tongs with a damp cloth and dry them well before putting them away. Set it in the middle of the table with the tongs resting beside it, and the tomato soon becomes the piece everyone reaches for first.
