Antique Terracotta 2-Handle Colander
An antique handmade terracotta colander or drainer with a rustic patina testament to its daily use as a practical domestic item. Dating back to the early 1900s, this Pugliese ‘colapasta’ was used to drain pasta for a family. The handmade strainer has that perfectly imperfect farmhouse charm with its sinuous handles that are perfect to hold, and nobbly feet. Besides being ideal as a decorative display piece this collectable colander would be perfect as a fruit bowl to add some country charm to a kitchen.
Found in Lecce
the baroque jewel and capital of the Salento.
Dimensions: H15cm x W32cm x D27cm
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.
