Objects Of Design #359: Log Torch

Now this is a very clever idea. A log that has been cleverly split so that it will burn vertically and that is filled with a firelighter so that it creates an instant fire. Yes, I know it’s really simple. Yes, I know you could have done that yourself. But you didn’t did you? Or perhaps you will now that you have the idea.

Anyway, here it is. Perfect for those evenings (perhaps not quite yet) when you fancy staying outside a little longer, or if you’re having a mini firework night and it’s still a bit chilly. The price includes a postage surcharge by the way as logs are heavy.

Small one €15 and large €28
