Antique Green Glazed Terracotta Colander

€250.00

This hand crafted terracotta colander from Puglia is a very rare find that dates back to the late 1800s. The antique bowl-shaped kitchen utensil with holes and handles was used for everyday use, draining food such as pasta. The rustic vessel is particularly unique due to its deep green glaze and its melon-shaped form. The ceramic colander features two handles on either side. It has a lovely handmade feel along with that magical patina brought about authentically by the passing of time and years of daily use. This remarkable piece of local history would make a lovely addition to any bench top or hung in a kitchen adding some southern Italian farmhouse charm. Create an impactful display with the matching pottery from southern Italy, as seen in the images.

Found in Lecce

the baroque jewel and capital of the Salento.

Dimensions: H14.5cm x W27cm x D22cm

These are handmade antique ceramics that are perfectly imperfect and some have been used for generations, so please expect some cracks, and chips, and discolouration. These individual characteristics are part of the charm and unique quality of each piece. Please note, colour may vary from screen to screen.
