This sponge holder is an emblematic object of traditional ceramics from Caldas da Rainha in Portugal. Designed for use in the kitchen, near the sink, it discreetly holds sponges, scrapers and other small utensils.
This piece is remarkable for the quality of its manufacture and the care taken in its finishing. Relief and detail are meticulous, the surface is perfectly smooth and glossy, and the colors are very vivid.

More informations ?
This piece comes from a small workshop in central-western Portugal, in the province of Estremadura. Its design is characteristic of Caldas da Rainha ceramics, whose most famous creator is Bordallo Pinheiro.
The molds used in this workshop have been handed down from generation to generation, and the current owner uses his grandfather's molds. All pieces are carefully handcrafted and production is very limited.
