A traditional ceramic piece, the large cream Nesting Hen is a wonderful accent for any kitchen. Before the invention of modern fridges, housewives would often store their eggs in these ceramic nesting hens. Made by Mason Cash, one of the last Victorian potteries in England, the Nesting Hens capture the charm and beauty of those by-gone eras. The cream finish is perfect for adding character and subtle detail to a modern kitchen, while it's rustic elegance enhances traditional designs. Made of vitrified stoneware that is strong and chip resistant the Nesting Hens are dishwasher safe and available for £11.95 from decuisine.co.uk.
