Medieval Desk Accessory? I Ask Thee, Why Not?

by Joi

If you have a taste for the unusual (and I’ve heard that you do), you’ll be as impressed with this The Claremont Helmet Lidded Bin as I am. No doubt you’ve heard about my own quirky taste for the unusual.

The sure-to-be-the-talk-of-the-office The Claremont Helmet Lidded Bin is from a retailer I’m completely obsessed with – Design Toscano.

To put it simply, they’re just as off-beat as we are. They, no doubt, have an inner Office Freak, and he – make no mistake about it – knows how to get his freak on.

Product Description:
Though the “Claremont” is an accurately rendered, medieval sculpture, the helmet opens to make this knight eminently useful in the charming English tradition of “the book hide”—as a dust bin with removal mesh basket, an ice bucket, a storage compartment, or as a stash for your latest cloak-and-dagger novel! Accurately sculpted, then cast in quality designer resin and finished as faux metal, this is a functional work of decorative art for your castle.

11″Wx12½”Dx16″H. 9 lbs.

This would look just great in a themed office (this is hard to find these days) or better in a minimalist environment. It adds just enough humor to the space and the finishing is great. It looks authentic. Great post!

I think it needs a foot pedal in the front so you can step on it to lift the visor – but I guess that wouldn’t be historically accurate. I have a nephew-in-law who would go totally bonkers over that, He’s an anthropology major who absolutely loves Medieval studies. If I had known about this nifty item before he got married last month, this would have been his wedding present (and yes, his bride is a total Medieval geek as well – they wrote their own wedding vows and delivered them in Latin).
