pie safe
Perforated pastry storage
A pie safe is a kitchen cabinet with perforated tin panels in the doors, traditionally used to store baked goods while allowing air circulation and keeping out flies.
The pierced tin often features decorative patterns.
Popular in 19th-century American homes before refrigeration, pie safes are now valued as antiques or rustic décor: The pie safe in her farmhouse kitchen held fresh bread and preserves.
