Fruit Boxes Set of 3 Bluewash

These bluewash wooden fruit boxes bring a softer rhythm to everyday storage, with wood grain and colour doing as much work as the shape itself. Use them to gather whole fruit on a kitchen counter, hold folded linen on open shelving, or bring a relaxed coastal note to a hallway or utility space.

Bluewashed wood with a lived-in feel

• The soft blue finish gives the crates a calm, weathered look without hiding the character of the wood.
• They turn everyday storage into display, making fruit, cloths or small household pieces feel considered rather than tucked away.
• The open crate form keeps things visible, so they suit spaces where you like to reach and choose at a glance.
• The colour works especially well with pale walls, natural fibres, ceramics and relaxed kitchen shelving.
• Used together, the set creates a simple visual rhythm, more collected than cluttered.

Albasia wood from Indonesia

The crates are made from Albasia wood and finished in a soft bluewash. A colourwash is designed to leave the feeling of timber present, so the piece keeps its rustic warmth rather than becoming flat or overly polished.

How they work around the home

Keep one on a worktop for whole fruit, place them on a shelf for rolled tea towels, or use the set to gather small objects in a studio, bathroom or boot room. They suit open storage best, where the contents become part of the room rather than hidden behind a cupboard door.

Care for the bluewash finish

Wipe with a dry, soft cloth. Keep away from prolonged damp and avoid soaking, as wood and washed finishes are happiest when kept dry. For food use, choose whole fruit or wrapped items rather than placing wet or cut food directly onto the wood.

Wooden crates in everyday life

Wooden crates have long belonged in kitchens, markets and workshops, valued because they are simple, useful and easy to move around. In the home, that same shape feels relaxed and familiar. The bluewash finish gives this set a coastal, slightly timeworn character, closer to a market shelf or seaside cottage than a plastic storage tub. It is practical, but it also brings texture into a room: the kind of detail that makes open shelving feel warm rather than purely functional.

A thoughtful housewarming gift

A useful choice for someone setting up a kitchen, refreshing open shelves, or moving into a first home. It feels decorative without being ornamental, and practical without looking plain.

Common questions

Can these be used for fruit?
Yes, they are well suited to whole fruit. Avoid placing wet, cut or unwrapped prepared food directly onto the wood.

Is the finish waterproof?
No waterproof finish is specified, so treat the crates as dry storage and keep them away from standing water or prolonged damp.
