A very well-made cap which is a delight to drink from, and 100% leak-proof.
High quality water bottle totally recommended
Sturdy washing up bowl. A light as a plastic one but feels so much better. Nice bright pop of colour on the outside.
It started with the idea of a lunchbox...
Joy & Liz 2015!
Ten years ago, around Joy's kitchen table, Joy & Liz began with one simple idea: to create a durable, reusable lunchbox.
Joy was making lunches every day for her three boys & struggling to find a lunchbox that could withstand daily use. Most options were plastic, easily broken & designed to be replaced rather than reused.
On trips to India to visit family Joy was inspired by the practicality & durability of stainless steel tiffins. We wanted something with that longevity & simplicity - designed for everyday western-style lunches.
The idea of creating our own stainless steel lunchbox got clearer...

Why Elephant Box?
We love Elephants! We have always associated Elephants with India, where many of our products are still made today, and to us they also represent strength, durability and longevity — qualities we wanted reflected in the products we create.
