I purchased this product in association with "Eldon Rolodex -Corbeille wooden post and Black perforated metal" because I did not find similar product in stores nearby. As I have already indicated to the paper basket, my request was rather access to wood to align myself with my current decor and only this attracted me due to its mix wood / iron and color phase with my decor. Robust construction, packaging seriously, this product is very good. In the same series you will also find the wastebasket and pencil bowl.
