Midwinter Pie Bird Vintage Ceramic Pie Funnel | Clarice Cliff Inspired Blackbird Kitchenalia

Product Description

A striking example of mid-century British kitchen design, this vintage Midwinter pie bird combines traditional baking function with the bold decorative style associated with the era.

Featuring a black glazed body, yellow beak and white base, this ceramic pie funnel takes inspiration from the iconic blackbird designs of Clarice Cliff, while being produced by Midwinter, one of Britain’s respected ceramic manufacturers. Designed to release steam during baking, pie birds became much-loved kitchen accessories that often featured charming and characterful designs.

The strong contrast of colours and distinctive silhouette make this piece equally appealing as a decorative collectable, bringing a touch of vintage British design to kitchen shelves, dresser displays or collections of ceramic kitchenalia.

Perfect for collectors of Midwinter pottery, Clarice Cliff inspired ceramics, vintage baking accessories, pie birds and British kitchenware.

A wonderful piece of mid-century kitchen history, celebrating playful design, traditional baking and the craftsmanship of British ceramics.

Its bold colours and striking design make it as decorative on display as it is useful in the kitchen.
