Beautiful garden trugs


The essential garden accessory – for carrying around
tools, freshly picked flowers or even weeds. These ones are
made by Burgon and Ball - that began manufacturing in 1730 in
heartland of Sheffield, UK. They also make the cutest garden
trugs for children; in natural wood or in pastel colours -
with two folding handles for easy storage.



A small garden trug, a Royal Sussex trug to be exact.
Preferred by Queen Victoria herself & awarded the royal
warrant, hence its name. Made by Thomas Smith & Sons
using bat willow & sweet chestnut. These are still made
today, much the same way they were 1851, in the village
of Herstmonceux, in East Sussex, UK
