Color: Stainless steel Is it bigger than a breadbox? Perhaps, a little. We store many more types ofbreads than our parents did. For over 2,000 years our ancestors usedcontainers to preserve the freshness of baked bread. The modern bread box isan extension of this wise tradition. Polder has taken it a step further toaccommodate different breads and rolls so, in a sense, it is bigger. “Bread box” is a term your grandmother knows. That’s where she stored herbread, cookies, and muffins–not in the refrigerator, where baked goodsquickly go stale. Her bread box was likely made of tin. This one is made ofsteel, durable enough to survive into the next century. The bread-boxprinciple remains as true today as it was in your grandmother’s time: to stayfresh, bread and baked goods need air–but not too much. This box lets in justenough air so that loaves don’t get soggy and crusts stay crisp. Like itsfunction, the form of this box is pleasingly retro. Plenty big enough (17inches wide by 7-1/4 inches high by 10 inches deep) to hold family-sizesupplies, its roll-top door opens and closes smoothly. The stainless steel onthis bread box gleams. Also available in cobalt blue or white, this is ahandsome accessory for any kitchen. _–Fred Brack_
