• Introduction

  I am a Camp Mess Tin Pot. I'm burning to know who's calling me a mess? On the contrary, I'll cook up a neat tent-side feast without the fuss.

   

• Curator's Notes 

  We thought this was a great shape for a camping pot until we learned of the design’s origin story and became even more obsessed. It became even more fascinating as an object and as functional camp-side storage and cookware. Originally used as a military design for its compact travel size, the lidded tin is now beloved by campers all over the world, and particularly in Japan where it can surprisingly cook up a vast majority of the local cuisine over a fire pit out in the wild - anything from curries and stews to ramen for one and even a loaf of milk bread! Also ideal for mountaineering as its sturdy enamel resists dents from hard impact. We can’t wait to incorporate this piece to our camp gear.
