Ceramic holders are made of stoneware and can have a high glazed finish or a matte one.
Handmade designs can be ornate with paintings and carvings. Mass produced ones, on the other hand, are available in an endless array of colors, sizes, and shapes.
Some have pottery-styled handles, while others can have externally attached lugs.
The flatware caddy style is quite popular.
White is the most popular color. But you can find one that matches your countertop or creates a contrast with it.
Vintage ceramic holders have a rustic charm that makes them pop out from the rest.
These are often handcrafted by skilled artisans and have tiny imperfections that give them a distinct character.
A vintage ceramic holder will blend well in a kitchen with a classic décor theme.
If you have an industrial kitchen or a contemporary one, then consider one with modern features integrated into it. Like an iPad or a tablet holder.
Holders with non-skid feet will stay put even if you accidentally elbow it while reaching out to grab a spoon.
