Bunbuku is a Japanese metalworking company that has been operating since 1913. These enameled steel wastebaskets are their best-selling products and can be recognized in homes and businesses throughout Japan. Featuring a basic yet pleasing form, the metal construction, rich enameled finish, and subtle design details, set it apart from the rest. The large size can feature a rubber gasket base, which helps prevent it from slipping and elevates it above damp floors. In 2015, the design received a special Long Life Design Award, given to Japanese designs that have endured over the decades.
