Eating fresh fruits and berries is part of a healthy diet, but many classic strainers make cleaning them inconvenient and time-consuming -- hence the new Berry Buddy dish. The stoneware strainer was handcrafted by designer Brian Kunkelman to bridge the gap between a strainer and a bowl.
The Berry Buddy fuses form and function to give users a convenient way to wash and serve their fruits and berries. It features a large bowl with holes that allow water from the tap to exit the bowl. The water is then funneled to the spout of the dish and into the sink. In addition, the stoneware strainer features a large and comfortable handle to easily enable users to hold the dish directly under the tap.
The Berry Buddy is perfect for washing and serving berries and also includes a lip to catch any excess water while the dish is set down.
