Historical & Style Details
History
Drum sieves, known in France as *tamis*, have been essential culinary and agricultural tools for centuries, used to sift flour, strain purees, or separate grain. The handwritten 'No 60' denotes a highly refined mesh size, typically reserved for sifting fine pastry flour. These utilitarian objects are highly sought after today for their rustic aesthetic and sculptural appeal in country house and farmhouse kitchen interiors.
