Ball of 270 rubber bands

Rather than leaving rubber bands loose at the bottom of a drawer, the 270 rubber bands in this ball form a compact object that fits in the hand and sits on a desk without getting in the way.

The rubber is supple and strong, so the bands hold without snapping on first use. The assorted colours give this utilitarian object a bold, almost decorative presence, in contrast with the usual discretion of office supplies.

With this ball, you can tie up cables, bundle documents together, hold a lid in place, organise a workshop or a kitchen.
