The idea behind this elegant piece of art, The Ornamented Life Laceplate with Drain , is simple: use it as a cover for your drain or as a food colander. Either way, it’s a much prettier alternative to the standard drain.

First oddity: egg steamer. Second: copper. Ok. A very pompous egg steamer. Interesting.
Cook three eggs right at the table in this gloriously handsome steamer. The copper-clad steel steamer stands on brass legs and is topped by a brass hen roosting on eggs. A removable steel egg cradle holds three medium to large eggs while they steam.
Sure. Ok.
