In 1931 Holger Nielsen wins a car! sells car {he doesn't have a driving license, Yeah for us right!!) invests in a metal lathe! {thank God!, just look at that gorgeous bin!!!} In 1939 he designs this rubbish bin for his lovely bride Marie, for her beauty salon... then many doctor wives and dentist wives come to get beauty'd up! They think the bin is perfect for their husbands clinics, so now this rubbish bin is a permanent feature in all Danish clinics! and the world!
AND
now I want one in my home!!
"Good design never goes out of fashion" ~Holger
he is right, I so want that matte black bin!! It is in my reno file for the kitchen!!
Happy Day to you all, go out and smell the lilacs!

Ah, I am obsessed with bins too! My kitchen isn't laid out for a standing one or else I would've succumbed some time ago, but there's always my new studio! Hope you're having a wonderful wednesday Callie!
