Overview

A conical galvanised milk strainer with fine wire mesh at the bottom. The mesh ring at the bottom of the strainer has a rigid handle to assist with removal. The strainer would sit on a milk can or other container, the milk would be poured through and the cream and any other sediment would be caught in the mesh strainer whilst the strained milk would flow into the catching container.
