A collapsible article, for example a colander (50; 60) or bowl (10; 90), comprises a plurality of semi-rigid, elongate leaves (12a-c; 52a-c) each having first and second ends. The first ends are attached together and the second ends are attached together. The leaves are moveable to reconfigure the article from one to the other of: an expanded configuration in which the leaves are spread to form a bowl shape, and a collapsed configuration. The article, when in the collapsed configuration, is of less volume than the bowl-shaped article. The leaf is typically less curved longitudinally in the collapsed configuration than in the expanded configuration. |
