The design reflects Morris’s deep connection to the natural world and was inspired by his walks through the English countryside, particularly the willow trees he admired.

The flowing, organic pattern is presented in calming green tones that feel both fresh and timeless. Designed for everyday use, this biscuit barrel offers generous storage while bringing a sense of heritage and craftsmanship to your kitchen. The lift off lid is finished with a pale green round knob, adding a practical and decorative finishing touch.
