Seller: classicbritain ✉️ (185) 100%, Location: UK, GB, Ships to: GB & many other countries, Item: 256442053277 RARE 1940s 50s French Enamel Colander Sieve Strainer Drainer Mid Century Vtg MCM. Selling for a family member who has downsized so no longer has space. Below are the details provided. Rare 1940s / 1950s pale mint green enamel colander made in France. Not 100% sure of age but definitely no later than 1950s. It has a dark green enamel band around the rim of the colander. This is a very rare colour way and particularly in such good condition.   Has 3 feet underneath for ease of use and a useful hole at the end of the long handle for easy storage on a rubber/plastic coated hook (specifically recommend this to avoid any accidental damage to enamel). It can easily be hung up by the other handle as well.  There are areas where the enamel has come away to be expected with an item of this age but there aren't any rust issues (it's been inspected with watchmaker's magnifying goggles) and it in no way hinders use. Happy to share 'tricks' in maintaining its lovely condition to buyer. This is a good solid piece and not flimsy in any way.  The colander itself is a good size and depth which makes it very useful. Only selling my much loved items as there just isn't the space anymore.  Please see other listings for more enamelware.  Measurements (are approximate):   Length (from edge of handle to edge of handle) -   17 inches / 43 cm Diameter -  8.5 inches / 21.5  cm  Internal Diameter -  just under 8 inches / just under 20 cm  Height (upright on its feet) -  5.5 inches / 14 cm Internal Height   -  4.5 inches / 11.5 cm Would suit any rustic, country style, farmhouse, vintage, retro, mid century, mid century modern, MCM, 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s etc home decor. 
Happy to combine postage where possible for multiple items.  Many thanks for looking. :)
