Era: Early 20th Century
Origin: France
Material: Glazed Terracotta
Dimensions: 11” Diameter × 3” H
DESCRIPTION
Once found in French country kitchens, this antique footed berry strainer reflects the beauty of everyday utility elevated by time. Designed for rinsing and draining seasonal fruits, the perforated form combines practicality with a sculptural quality that feels equally at home in a collected interior today.
The warm honey-toned glaze and handcrafted construction showcase the character of traditional French pottery. Raised on three small feet and impressed with the number “3” on the underside, this piece bears the marks of its working life. Evidence of traditional firing, subtle glaze variations, and decades of gentle use contribute to its rich patina and authenticity.
Whether displayed on open shelving, layered into a European-inspired pantry, styled atop a stack of antique ironstone, or filled with seasonal produce as a centerpiece, it brings warmth, texture, and quiet French charm to any space.
CONDITION
Beautifully aged with surface wear, glaze variations, kiln markings, and natural imperfections acquired over decades of use. The three feet display expected wear consistent with age and handling. One mature hairline is present and remains stable. These signs of age are considered part of the piece’s history and contribute to the character, authenticity, and charm that make antique objects so special.
