A classic vintage pie bird in the form of a white ceramic cockerel, bringing a touch of traditional farmhouse character to the kitchen.
Designed to sit in the centre of a pie while baking, pie funnels allowed steam to escape and helped support the pastry lid. Once familiar in British kitchens, these practical little objects have become much loved pieces of kitchenalia, appreciated for their nostalgic connection to home baking and their wonderfully decorative forms.
The simple white glaze and traditional cockerel silhouette give this example a timeless quality. The cockerel is an enduring symbol of the country kitchen, making this a particularly easy piece to style amongst vintage ceramics, open shelving and other treasured kitchen curiosities.
Whether kept for display or enjoyed as a baking accessory, it offers a lovely reminder of a time when even the most practical household objects could have a little personality.
A country nostalgic kitchen piece with a charming connection to the traditions of British home baking.
