The Darware caddy is a 7-inch copper-coated steel crock for holding wooden spoons, spatulas, and whisks upright next to the range. The copper finish is a plated coating over steel rather than solid copper, which keeps the price down and means it will not develop a heavy patina the way raw copper does. The base is weighted enough that pulling a tightly packed spatula out does not drag the whole crock with it, and the interior is open with no dividers, so oversized tools fit. It is hand-wash only. Best fit: counters where utensils currently live in a drawer or a mismatched jar, and kitchens leaning warm-metal rather than stainless.
Pros
- Weighted base does not lift when you pull a wedged utensil out
- Open interior with no dividers fits oversized spoons and whisks
- Copper plating stays bright instead of patinating unevenly like raw copper
- 7-inch height keeps long tools upright without tipping
Cons
- Hand-wash only, and the copper coating will scratch if you go at it with an abrasive pad

Frequently asked questions
Is this solid copper?
No, it is copper-plated steel. That keeps the cost down and means it stays bright rather than developing a patina.
Is it dishwasher safe?
No. Hand wash with a soft cloth; abrasive pads will scratch the copper finish.
Will it hold heavy utensils without tipping?
Yes, the base is weighted. A full load of wooden spoons and metal tongs stays stable.
How wide is the opening?
The interior is fully open at roughly 7 inches tall, so wide spatulas and whisks fit without wedging.
