Mike + Ally Lava Waste Basket

Yes, the handcrafted metallic finish is designed to withstand typical bathroom humidity. However, as with any artisanal piece, we recommend wiping it down with a soft, dry cloth rather than using harsh chemical cleaners to preserve the finish.

No, this model features an open-top design. It is intended to be a decorative accent piece, so it works best for dry waste like paper or tissues rather than food scraps or items that require containment.

The basket includes a removable liner, which makes maintenance straightforward. You can easily lift the liner out to empty or clean it, keeping the decorative exterior pristine.

At 5 pounds, the basket has a solid, weighted feel that prevents it from tipping over easily. Its tapered shape also adds to its overall stability on flat surfaces.

Given its 3-gallon capacity and tapered dimensions, a standard grocery bag may be too large and bunch up awkwardly. We recommend using smaller, custom-fit liners or simply using the provided removable liner directly.
