Description
This stainless steel food flask carries the Wild Flowers print, a botanical band of poppies, bluebells, foxgloves, cornflowers and dog roses laid out like the plates of an old field guide. Each flower is numbered, with its common and Latin names printed in neat type beneath, so Common Poppy sits beside Papaver rhoeas and Dog Rose beside Rosa canina. The print wraps around a soft cream body under a brushed stainless steel lid, with a polished steel rim at the neck. It holds 450ml and stands 13.8cm tall and 9.3cm across, a compact size that slips easily into a bag or rucksack.
We see it as a flask for proper food away from home: a warming bowl of soup at your desk, a hearty stew on a winter walk, or a chilled salad for a summer picnic. It keeps contents hot for up to 12 hours and cold for up to 24 hours, so a lunch packed first thing can stay warm until well into the afternoon. It suits drinks as well as food. Dairy drinks, juices and alcohol can cause pressure to build up and the lid to fail, so those are best kept out of it. For anyone who loves a country hedgerow, the cheerful print makes an everyday lunch feel a little brighter.
The flask and the outer lid are stainless steel, and the lid has a cream plastic and silicone stopper that fits into the neck. It is not dishwasher safe, so wash it by hand in warm soapy water and let it dry fully before closing. Never put it in the microwave or the freezer. The brushed lid and polished rim wipe clean with a soft cloth. Tuck it into a lunch bag for the working week, or wrap it up as a cheerful gift for anyone who would rather pack a homemade lunch than buy one.
