Kate Marker Home Ceramic Colander

While it is food-safe and durable, this colander is primarily designed for rinsing berries and vegetables. Because it is ceramic, it may be heavy and retain heat differently than metal strainers, so we recommend using it for cold or room-temperature produce rather than boiling liquids.

This is a compact piece intended for smaller tasks. It is perfectly sized for washing a pint of berries or a handful of cherry tomatoes, making it more of a countertop accent than a tool for large-batch meal prep.

Yes, the ceramic material is dishwasher safe. Its smooth finish allows for easy cleaning, though hand washing is always a gentle option to preserve the artisan glaze over time.

Each piece is artisan-crafted in the United States. This local production ensures a high level of quality control and supports traditional craftsmanship.

Like any high-quality ceramic, it is durable but not indestructible. It is designed for daily kitchen use, but you should handle it with the same care you would use for your favorite ceramic serving bowls.
