Colorful Green Porcelain Footed Berry Colander With Pink And Yellow Chrysanthemums Heart Shaped Holes
Product Description And Additional Pictures
We were delighted to find this functional, yet oh-so-lovely vintage porcelain scalloped berry colander with a striking pink and yellow crysanthemum motif. This footed colander's design is intact and the colors are bright! The interior of this beautiful vintage scalloped colander flaunts a background of soft green with an array of pink and yellow chrysanthemums accented with enamelled touches, amidst gold beading and gold embellishments. The outer rim of the colander is 6-1/2" in diameter at its widest point, and it stands 3-3/4" in height. The holes at the base of the vintage porcelain colander form a heart pattern -- intentional or accidental? We don't know, but it is certainly charming! Transfer designs of pink chrysanthemums adorn the outside of the vintage porcelain bowl, and the three curved legs still boast traces of gilding. This lovely colander, though clearly used, has survived the years without a chip or a crack. Even the gilding on the inside of this delightful colander, while somewhat worn, is still largely intact! It is, in our experience, highly unusual to find a utilitarian piece in such good shape, and decorated with such care. Please examine our photographs and judge for yourself!
