The buff cream ground is enlivened with apple-green and cinnamon-toned brushstrokes, while a molded garland of roses frames a small standing figure in low relief, a rare feature on such pieces. The arched backplate is pierced for hanging and finished with a green rope-twist edge, set above two deep cups. The glaze shows a timeworn finish with firing specks and some losses to the high points and edges, which add to its antique appeal.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThis type of wall-mounted drainer was commonly used in country kitchens, hung near the sink to dry and store everyday cutlery. The lively palette and molded decoration bring a cheerful touch and rustic charm to a kitchen or pantry, where it can still be used to hold cutlery or cooking utensils or dried sprigs of thyme or rosemary for cooking. In a utility or garden space, the twin compartments can hold small tools or soap while adding warmth and character. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 13¾\" high x 10¾\" wide 4\" thick \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 35cm high x 27cm wide 10cm thick\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53186745532754,"sku":"24353","price":1395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC00619_7afe3380-9839-44dc-9f4b-84ef2086867a.jpg?v=1776086443","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/antique-wall-mounted-cutlery-drainer-w-relief-decoration-133-4","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
