Danese Milano Sicilia cardboard basket

Sicilia Cardboard is the iconic wastepaper basket by Danese Milano, originally designed by Bruno Munari in 1959 in polished stainless steel and reinterpreted by the designer himself in 1978 in a cardboard version. Today, this landmark project is re-edited in natural havana corrugated cardboard, protected by a water-resistant surface treatment that enhances durability while preserving its essential character and iconic hexagonal geometry.

An ideal complement for the office or the living room, Sicilia Cardboard embodies a rational and sustainable approach to everyday design. The base can be separated from the hexagonal body, allowing the basket to fold onto itself for optimized transport and storage: this flat-pack solution reduces environmental impact while emphasizing functionality and efficiency. Measuring 250 × 220 × 330 mm, the corrugated cardboard structure with a coated cardboard base is lightweight yet well-structured, integrating elegantly into any interior setting.
