This is a pot for boiling pasta (a pasta pot). It comes with a strainer with a handle and holes in the bottom, which I think is convenient for draining the pasta. Size: Diameter: Approximately 21.5cm, Height: Approximately 13.5cm *Measurements do not include handles or glass lid. There is some dirt on the metal parts of the handles and the bottom, but it has only been used about 1-2 times. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about this item being stored at home.
