A PRACTICAL AND FUNCTIONAL KITCHEN ACCESSORY
A wet, dripping sponge has never been the most pleasant thing to deal with in the kitchen! Based on this principle and rather than leaving your sponge lying at the bottom of the sink or carelessly abandoned on the edge of the sink, the sponge holder was born! A kitchen accessory that has become essential for anyone who wants to have a well-organized kitchen by keeping all the useful and practical kitchen utensils on hand. It is the essential kitchen accessory for daily kitchen maintenance but also for general household maintenance . The scouring sponge (or other) now has its place, sitting on its sponge holder and ensuring optimal drying, ready to be used for all the household tasks you deem useful!
MATERIALS AND SHAPES OF SPONGE HOLDERS
By definition, the sponge holder is in permanent contact with the sponge and therefore with humidity. Hence the importance of choosing the material of your kitchen sponge holder carefully. There are several materials such as plastic, glass, stoneware or even porcelain. Each of these materials has the advantage of being highly resistant to humidity, which will allow this kitchen accessory to be particularly durable and robust over time. The stoneware sponge holder , for example ( handcrafted ) is completely non-porous due to its high-temperature firing and vitrification. It is perfect for intensive use in contact with water, as would be the plastic sponge holder , the glass sponge holder , the ceramic sponge holder or the porcelain sponge holder . As for the shapes, we find many classic sponge holders or fanciful sponge holders ( designer sponge holder , fun sponge holder , original sponge holder , etc.) but there is one criterion on which we must not compromise: the sponge holder must be perfectly stable or have a reliable hanging system and above all adapt to a maximum number of sponge models ( classic sponge , microfiber sponge , scouring sponge , ecological sponge , washable sponge , absorbent sponge , vegetable sponge , etc.) from the thinnest to the thickest.
STONEWARE SPONGE HOLDER: MANUFACTURING TECHNIQUES
As part of a handcrafted production, sponge holders are traditionally made of stoneware: an ancestral technique that goes through several stages: preparation of the earth (centering the earth on the wheel), turning and assembly, finishing and decoration, cooking, drying and then final cooking. Stoneware is also the ideal material for this type of object because after cooking at more than 1200 degrees it becomes non-porous and therefore resistant to water and humidity, ensuring this object robustness and longevity . The incomparable finish of this type of kitchen item also gives it an aesthetic appearance allowing it to blend into any kitchen decoration.
