Easy, travel-able, beautiful.

A classic valet, but waterproof. Drop your rings and watch in it before you hop in the pool. Leave it by the front door for your keys. Snap it flat and pack it with you so you have the perfect spot to leave your jewelry when you travel. 

5" x 5" x 1" (snapped)

All valets are unique and may not be the exact piece of the pattern that is shown in images. But it will of course be created from the pool pattern indicated. Back side pattern will be a surprise - they are all different. This is the nature of One Of A Kind (OOAK) production.

 

Mylle has collecting used pools to give their beautiful material a second life. In partnership with Studio Howard & Portland Garment Factory they have created the most beautiful waterproof accessories for everyday life. 

Some companies claim that their inflatable pools are recyclable (or even compostable), but that is not actually so great. Most plastics never end up being recycled, and those that are still create quite a bit of waste in the process. So Mylle has been taking back pools their customers no longer want to keep them out of landfills, with the dream of one day turning them into something beautiful to continue their use.

Mylle's note on price:

It takes a lot to keep materials out of the landfill. That's why so few people do it.

First, we have to ship the pools back to HQ. Then we have to store them. Then we have to get them to PGF. Then we have to deconstruct the pools and clean them thoroughly. And then we sew them into something entirely new.

And it's completely worth it. Thank you for valuing it.
