Description
Our Yuichi ice bucket is a pineapple made in metal: 100% aluminium with a glossy gold finish. A fine diamond pattern runs across the whole body, the way the skin of the fruit is marked, and a crown of sculpted leaves rises from the top. The leaves and the upper part of the fruit lift away together as the lid, leaving a rounded body below to fill with ice. It stands 24cm tall and 13cm across and holds 1000ml, so it is a compact bucket for a round of drinks at home rather than a large tub for a crowd.
It belongs wherever drinks are poured. Stand it on a bar cart or drinks trolley, on a sideboard beside the glasses, or in the middle of the table for an evening of cocktails, a summer party or a long lunch with friends. It is made for contact with food, so the ice can go straight from the bucket into a glass. It suits anyone who likes a home bar with a sense of humour, and it makes a cheerful housewarming or birthday present for the friend who always mixes the drinks. Between parties it can stay out on a shelf or windowsill as a decorative piece.
Body and lid are both 100% aluminium, a light metal that does not rust, and the whole piece weighs 0.98KG. It does not go in the dishwasher, so wash it by hand; it is not for the microwave or the oven either. The glossy gold finish catches the light from every side, so it looks as good standing alone on a shelf as it does among bottles. For styling, keep gold bar tools, a pair of tongs, a few coupe glasses and a bowl of lemons beside it, and a cart or sideboard becomes a ready drinks station.
