Yes, to some it might resemble a hat but I assure you it's not. It's a food cover--although I suppose if you've had a few too many glasses of wine it might equate to the lampshade on the head of New Year's Eve fame. That said, I think it's rather nifty and quite clever. It's also eco-friendly because it's made of sustainable bamboo. 26 cm high by 41 cm wide. Available in opal (shown here) and red.

There's always something new and exciting at Vivavi--like these "softseating strips" mix and match units made from 100% heavyweight Kraft Paper (50% post-consumer waste) for instance. The honeycomb structure is what gives these their strength and allows them to fold up into book size modules for storage or fan out for use as a seat or table. In natural or black, which is dyed with charred bamboo.

If you're looking for hardware made from natural materials including shells, stone, faux ivory (tagua nut), wood, bone, and antler, then check out the selection at Nature's Hardware. The octagon cabinet knob shown here is made from bone and antler and has an Art Deco feel to it.

Eco-modernism -n.
1. Contemporary designs created with sustainable practices.
2. Not to be confused with the business paradigm of the same name.
