A characterful piece of French vintage pottery, this ceramic strainer bowl features a softly blended green and yellow glaze over a pale ground, with natural wear that reveals the warm terracotta beneath.
Originally used in the kitchen for draining and rinsing, this pierced bowl has a hand-thrown shape, raised foot and evenly spaced holes.
The glaze varies across the surface, moving between soft green and buttery tones, creating a finish that feels organic rather than uniform. Small imperfections and marks from use add to its sense of history.
Now, it lends itself easily to decorative use. It works well as a centrepiece filled with fruit, hung on a wall, placed on open shelving, or layered with other rustic ceramics to bring warmth and texture to a space.
