As we neared our final design, we tallied our costs and found we were over budget. Our engineering team suggested removing the French cleat and replacing it with keyhole slots in order to reduce production costs. We then leveled out the basin, and replaced the leather with the wool felt found in a number of our products. Three brass pegs nestle inside the lower lip of the molded wood, giving a hidden spot to hang keys or lanyards, while the brass dots peeking through on the outside are a subtle, eye-catching detail.
