Studio Pottery Strawberry Themed Colander and Creamer Set

This set consists of two pieces of hand-thrown studio pottery featuring a charming strawberry motif. The first piece is a flared berry colander or strainer bowl, equipped with small integrated handles and drain holes at the base. The second piece is a small creamer or pitcher with a stout handle and a wide pour spout. Both items are crafted from a light-colored stoneware or earthenware clay, finished with a creamy white glaze. The decoration consists of hand-painted red strawberries with green stems and seeds, accompanied by a sage green band around the rim and collars. The style suggests late 20th-century artisanal production, possibly dating from the 1980s or 1990s. The colander shows visible throwing rings on the interior, indicating human craftsmanship rather than industrial molding. Both pieces appear to be in good vintage condition with no immediate signs of large chips or cracks, though typical crazing and light surface wear consistent with functional kitchen use may be present upon close tactile inspection. The rustic, country-chic aesthetic is a hallmarks of regional studio pottery from this period.
