Mid Century Modern " Detecto " Embossed Starburst Pattern Laundry Hamper
Item History & Price
Mid Century Modern "Detecto" Embossed Starburst Pattern Laundry Hamper Clean! If you're a "Baby Boomer", growing up in the 1950s and 1960s, you remember this type of clothes hamper, either in the bathroom or closet area. Before changing clothes or taking a bath / shower, your mother probably told you ( as mine did) to "make sure you throw your dirty clothes in the hamper"!This particular hamper style dates from the early 1960s, when many consumer goods, s...uch as dishes , clocks , and Christmas ornaments, etc, were adorned in Mid Century "starburst" or "atomic"shapes / patterns. This hamper was made by "Detecto" Company of New York (the scale company). It features a curved cabinet, done in a gold vinyl diamond quilted pattern exterior, with each diamond having an embossed starburst . On the upper left side is a large starburst ornament!The lid is padded and hinged. The inside is large , being able to hold at least 2 full load of laundry! The back side and bottom are vented . The outside bottom has 4 rounded plastic feet, which aid in sliding the hamper around on the floor. If you have a "Mid Century" home, or just want a functioning piece of nostalgia, this hamper will be a great addition to the daily routine of "throwing your dirty clothes in the hamper"! "Local pick up is welcome!"
