MacKenzie-Childs | Sky Check Large Colander

Give stainless steel the day off and bring a little personality to your kitchen prep. The MacKenzie-Childs Sky Check Large Colander wraps heavy-gauge steel in hand-painted blue checks that make rinsing berries or draining pasta feel like a small celebration. The bronzed stainless steel rim and antiqued brass-finished handles add warmth and a sure grip when you’re moving from sink to stovetop.

We fell for this colander because it does double duty so effortlessly. Fill it with just-picked vegetables as a hostess gift, prop it up as a charming fruit bowl on the counter, or keep it by the sink for its intended purpose. The hand-glazed enamel finish recalls a lush garden in summer, and each piece carries handmade variations that give it genuine one-of-a-kind character.

It’s the kind of kitchen tool that earns compliments while doing real work. Grab yours and let the color in.
