STEHAUF Herb Flacon – the Self-Righting Designer Spice Jar

Clink glasses, give it a swing, let it dance, and be amazed: the STEHAUF herb bottle is a spice jar that starts to move and keeps righting itself all on its own. Its precisely balanced shape transforms an everyday kitchen item into an extraordinary design piece.

The video allows you to experience this unique feature first-hand: when the herb bottle is nudged, it tilts and rotates playfully without simply toppling over. After every movement, it returns to its upright position. The result is a fascinating interplay of glass, wood, weight, balance and craftsmanship.

Key features at a glance:

  • A unique, functional design piece
  • Handcrafted to the highest standard
  • A stylish way to display your spices
  • Available individually or as a bespoke set

 

 

The STEHAUF herb bottle stylishly stores spices, dried herbs or tea, whilst showcasing them to great effect. Instead of being tucked away in a closed cupboard, it can be displayed on the kitchen worktop, the dining table or on an open shelf. On its own, it looks like a small design piece; when grouped together, they create a freely arrangable spice display.

The handcrafted hardwood hemisphere encases the glass base and gives each bottle its distinctive character. A natural cork seals the glass and emphasises the warm, high-quality combination of materials.

For people who don’t just want to look at good design, but experience it: the STEHAUF herb bottle combines storage, craftsmanship at its finest and movement to create a spice jar that is anything but ordinary.

 

This is the STEHAUF herb bottle – a spice jar crafted to perfection

The STEHAUF herb bottle from Urbanature is a self-righting spice jar for spices, dried herbs and tea. Its unique feature lies in its precisely balanced weight distribution: if the jar is knocked, it begins to wobble and then rights itself automatically. This sets the STEHAUF apart from traditional spice jars. It serves not only as a storage container, but also as a dynamic design piece for the kitchen and dining table.

The self-righting function.

The semi-circular wooden base and the low centre of gravity are designed to work in harmony, ensuring that the herb bottle always returns to its original position after being moved. The glass may tilt, turn and wobble – but it will never remain lying on its side. The self-righting function makes it intuitive and fun to use. At the same time, it explains the product’s unusual shape: the wooden ball is not merely a decorative element, but an essential part of the design.

A designer spice jar instead of a traditional spice rack.

The STEHAUF requires no fixed frame and no additional spice rack. Each herb bottle stands on its own and can be arranged as desired. This means the arrangement can be changed, expanded or adapted to the available space at any time. A single bottle adds a subtle touch. Several STEHAUF spice jars can be arranged as a group on the worktop, an open kitchen shelf or directly on the dining table. This keeps frequently used spices visible and within easy reach.

For spices, herbs and tea

With a capacity of around 100 ml, the herbal bottle is suitable for, amongst other things:

  • Salt and spice mixes
  • Peppercorns
  • Chilli and dried paprika
  • Dried culinary herbs
  • Loose tea
  • Our own herb and spice blends

The transparent glass container makes the contents immediately recognisable. The different colours and textures of the spices themselves become part of the design.

Hardwood, glass and natural cork.

The STEHAUF combines three natural and durable materials:
The transparent glass bottle keeps the contents visible. The precisely fitted natural cork seals the opening and is easy to remove. The handcrafted hardwood hemisphere forms the base of the bottle, protects the delicate glass base and ensures a pleasant feel.

Depending on the design, the STEHAUF is available in a range of different types of wood. Oak has a calm, classic look; ash is particularly light and airy; whilst walnut, with its darker hue, creates a striking contrast to the glass. As wood is a natural material, the grain and colour vary from piece to piece. This makes every herb bottle a unique piece.

Handcrafted.

The production of the wooden base requires precision. The wood is precisely turned, carefully sanded and oiled. The glass and the wooden body are then permanently joined together and aligned in such a way as to create the characteristic self-righting movement. Minor variations in colour and grain are not flaws, but typical characteristics of the natural material. They emphasise the handcrafted nature of the product.

An extraordinary gift.

The STEHAUF herb bottle makes a stylish gift for amateur chefs, tea lovers and anyone who appreciates special kitchen accessories. Whether as a housewarming present, a gift to mark a new kitchen or a high-quality token of appreciation, it combines practicality with a surprising experience. Unlike an ordinary spice jar, the STEHAUF reveals its secret through its movement: a gentle nudge is all it takes to demonstrate its special function.

Care instructions

The glass can be cleaned carefully once it has been emptied. The wooden base should not be left standing in water for any length of time. A soft, slightly damp cloth is usually sufficient for cleaning the wood. The surface should then be left to dry completely. The natural cork should also only be wiped gently with a damp cloth. Spices residues are best removed with a soft brush or a dry cloth.

Frequently asked questions about the STEHAUF herbal bottle

What makes the STEHAUF herbal bottle so special?

The STEHAUF herb bottle is a self-righting spice jar. If it is knocked, it begins to wobble and then rights itself automatically. It thus combines the storage of spices, herbs or tea with an unusual, movable design object.

How does the self-righting mechanism work?

The semi-circular wooden base and the low centre of gravity are precisely calibrated to work in harmony. As a result, the herb bottle always returns to its upright position after being tilted or knocked. The unusual wooden shape is therefore not only decorative, but also an essential part of its function.

Could the herbal bottle tip over?

Under normal use, the STEHAUF will wobble and tilt, but will right itself automatically. Like any piece of glass, it may be damaged if subjected to a very strong impact, if dropped from a worktop, or if placed on an unsuitable surface. It should therefore be used on a flat, stable surface.

What can the STEHAUF herbal bottle be used for?

The herb jar is ideal for storing dry foodstuffs, such as:

  • dried culinary herbs
  • salt and spice mixes
  • peppercorns
  • chilli and dried paprika
  • loose tea leaves
  • your own herb and spice blends

The transparent glass means the contents remain visible at all times.

How much fits into the spice jar?

The STEHAUF herb bottle has a capacity of approximately 100 ml. The actual amount that can be filled depends on the size, weight and texture of the contents. Whole peppercorns, for example, take up more space than finely ground spices.

Is a natural cork airtight?

The natural cork seals the mouth of the bottle reliably and protects the contents during everyday use. However, as natural cork is a natural material, it is not a technically airtight or vacuum-sealed closure. The herb bottle is particularly suitable for dry spices, herbs and tea that are used regularly.

Do I need a shelf for the STEHAUF spice jars?

No. Each STEHAUF herbal bottle stands on its own and can be placed anywhere on the kitchen worktop, the dining table or on an open shelf. You can rearrange or add to your collection of bottles at any time, or position them to suit the available space.

What types of wood are available?

The STEHAUF herb bottle is available in various types of hardwood, subject to availability. Light-coloured woods such as ash have a light, modern look, oak has a calm, classic appearance, and walnut adds a darker, striking accent. Wood is a natural material. The grain and colour may therefore differ from the product images. Each herb bottle is unique and of the highest quality.

Is every STEHAUF herbal bottle handmade?

The wooden base is handcrafted, carefully sanded and oiled. The joining of the glass, the wooden body and the self-righting mechanism also requires precise workmanship. Slight variations in grain and colour are typical of the material and emphasise the piece’s unique character.

How do you clean the herb bottle?

Spice residue can be removed initially by gently shaking it out or using a soft brush. The glass surface and the wooden base can be cleaned with a soft, slightly damp cloth. The wooden base and the natural cork should not be left soaking in water for long periods. Do not use harsh cleaning products and allow the spice jar to dry completely before refilling it.

Can the STEHAUF herbal bottle be put in the dishwasher?

The combination of wood, glass and natural cork is not suitable for cleaning in the dishwasher. Heat, moisture and detergents can damage the wooden surface, the adhesive bond or the natural cork. Gentle cleaning by hand is recommended.

Can liquids be poured in as well?

The STEHAUF herb jar has been designed primarily for dry spices, herbs and tea. Due to its natural cork stopper and the STEHAUF function, it is not intended for use with liquids.

Is the STEHAUF herbal bottle suitable as a gift?

Yes. The herb bottle makes an ideal gift for amateur chefs, tea lovers and anyone with a penchant for unusual product design. It’s also a special gift idea for a housewarming, a wedding, a new kitchen or as a high-quality present. Its function can be demonstrated straight away: a gentle nudge is all it takes for the STEHAUF to start rocking.

Is a single bottle of herbal remedy or a set more effective?

A single STEHAUF bottle adds a distinctive touch and is ideal for a favourite spice that you use frequently. Several bottles, with their different spice colours, types of wood and arrangements, create a personalised spice display. A set is therefore particularly suitable for the kitchen worktop or as a gift.
