Connie Hüsser's smiley Leo Sponges for HAY are an everyday household essential which add a playful pop of colour to the kitchen. Handcrafted in Turkey, all the Leo sponges have slightly different faces, which give each one an individual quality. Use these colourful sponges to make washing up a little less ordinary or just as fun decorative objects to brighten up a room. Made from durable polyester, Leo is available in a variety of colours and comes with its own unique character.
