Tortuga Lidded Catchall

Tortuga Lidded Catchall

A little unexpected, a little old-world, and completely charming.

The Tortuga Lidded Catchall is cast in iron with a warm copper-bronze finish and sculpted into the form of a quietly handsome turtle. Originally designed in the tradition of a lidded ashtray, this little turtle has taken on a life of its own — now equally at home holding matches, rings, coins, cocktail picks, or other tiny treasures.

Its weighty cast-iron construction gives it substance, while the aged metallic finish lends the character of something discovered rather than simply purchased. Set it on a coffee table, bar cart, nightstand, or stack of well-loved books and let it do what the best collected pieces do: make people ask where you found it.

The Brindle Edit:  Style Tortuga beside a stone tray, a small candle, or a favorite cocktail glass for an easy layered vignette. We especially love it as a match keeper near the fireplace or as a small catchall on an entry console.

The Brindle Note:  Though inspired by the traditional lidded ashtray, Tortuga is far too interesting to be limited to one purpose. Use it, collect it, or simply let it sit there looking wonderfully eccentric.
