The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Meat drainers, also known as meat strainers or platter inserts, were perforated ceramic plates designed to rest inside large serving platters during the 18th and 19th centuries. They allowed juices and fats from roasted meats to drain away into the platter base beneath, keeping the joint elevated during serving.

Most 19th-century English meat drainers were crafted from earthenware, ironstone, or pearlware. They feature hand-drilled or moulded drainage holes and were finished with underglaze transfer-printed decoration or hand-painted enamels beneath a clear protective glaze.

Authentic 19th-century pieces typically display evidence of hand-finishing, such as slight irregularities around the drain holes and unglazed feet or underside edges. Look for period-appropriate maker marks, crazing beneath the glaze, and surface wear consistent with historical domestic use.

These decorative ceramic pieces can be displayed on plate stands within glazed dressers, arranged in a wall gallery using wire plate hangers, or grouped on floating shelves in a dining space. Their varied patterns add visual interest and texture to contemporary displays.

Clean these delicate ceramics gently using warm water and a mild detergent, avoiding harsh abrasives or soaking, which can cause moisture to enter micro-cracks in the glaze. Ensure they are thoroughly dried before displaying, and avoid exposing them to rapid temperature shifts or dishwashers.
