Vegetable Ikiiki Stand, Set of 4

$32.75★★★★☆1

We mould this four-piece stand set in Yokkaichi to hold cut stems upright in a shallow cup of water. Leafy bunches and broccoli heads stay firm longer when resting on their cut ends rather than lying flat on a shelf.

The containers link side by side along their base rails so tall stalks do not tip over. Invert the upper frame over the cup to double the wall height for taller produce.

Details

  • MakerInomata Chemical, Yokkaichi, Japan
  • ShelfSink & Prep
  • MaterialPolypropylene
  • OriginMade in Japan

What makes it work

  • Polypropylene construction provides rigid vertical walls that support heavy broccoli heads without bowing.
  • Base dimensions measure 9.8 by 10.2 cm with a standard height of 10 cm per unit.
  • Inverted frame assembly extends total height to 18.6 cm for long greens and stalks.
  • Individual pieces interlock side to side to build a stable row along a refrigerator shelf.

How to use

Add a small measure of water into the base cup and set your trimmed vegetable stems directly inside. For taller greens, flip the upper support piece upside down and snap it into the rim to raise the side walls. Slide the units together along their side clips to lock multiple stands into a steady line.

Care

Wash each piece by hand using lukewarm water and standard dishwashing detergent. Rinse thoroughly and dry before linking them together for storage.
