Tutto Handcrafted Ceramic Fruit Colander with Drip Plate – European Artisan Design

More than mere kitchenware, the Tutto Fruit Colander is a refined charmingly utilitarian and unmistakably sculptural two-piece ceramic colander and drip plate ensemble.

It is crafted entirely by hand by a European Artisan Ceramicist, known only to collectors upon acquisition.

Celebrating imperfection as an aesthetic, the piece features an irregular 17cm underplate and a colander bowl measuring approximately 16cm in diameter and 6cm at its deepest. These dimensions, like the work itself, are approximate by design—embracing the wabi-sabi philosophy that beauty lies in asymmetry and individuality.

Every curve, perforation, and splash of glaze has been shaped and tinted with precise intentionality before being kiln-fired to permanence. It is a singular work within the Tutti series—a collection defined by color, utility, and tactile delight. Here, the simple act of washing berries becomes a small ceremony, elevated through craftsmanship.

Whether acquired as a functional design object, a collectible work of contemporary craft, or a joyful addition to a curated kitchen, the Tutto Fruit Colander reminds us that beauty can—and should—exist in the everyday.
