Southern Italy, Puglia, Grottaglie, Ricotta Cheese Drainer AN-24072

A colander from Grottaglie, Puglia, southern Italy, from the 19th to early 20th century.

This is a special container for removing excess water when making ricotta cheese.

Nowadays, they are used as drainers, pot covers for small plants, and candle holders.

I want to have fun with free ideas.
