Burgon & Ball – Sophie Conran Galvanised Steel Garden Trug with Wooden Handle

Designed by renowned British designer Sophie Conran, this beautifully crafted Galvanised Trug brings timeless elegance and practicality to your gardening routine. Whether you're pottering around the garden or entertaining outdoors, this trug delivers style and substance in equal measure.

Made from strong galvanised steel with a comfortable waxed beech wood handle, it’s lightweight yet sturdy enough to carry all your essentials. With two roomy internal compartments, it's the ideal size for storing hand tools, seed packets, plant labels, string, gloves and all those “bits and bobs” every gardener needs on hand.

Each trug is hand-finished and lightly aged, giving it its own unique character and making it just as charming left out on display as it is useful in the garden. The brass riveted Sophie Conran seal adds a designer touch to this rustic, utilitarian piece.

And it’s not just for the garden! This trug transitions beautifully into the home—use it to carry cutlery, napkins or condiments for garden dining, or even as a stylish indoor organiser.

Sophie says: “This beautiful trug is now the permanent store for my favourite garden tools. It keeps everything to hand and in my case lives just by the back door, so I'm ready to grab a spare minute in the garden.”

Pair it with other items from the Sophie Conran for Burgon & Ball collection for a coordinated and covetable garden set-up.
