Know before you buy
While Polish stoneware is highly durable, we recommend letting the dish reach room temperature before placing it in a preheated oven to avoid thermal shock.
This baker has a capacity of 9.7 cups, making it an ideal size for side dishes, casseroles, or baked desserts for a small group.
Yes, the baker features integrated handles designed to provide a secure grip, though we always recommend using thick oven mitts when removing the dish from temperatures up to 480°F.
No. Because the pattern is applied under the glaze and fired at high temperatures, the design is protected and will remain vibrant even with regular dishwasher use.
Polish stoneware is not inherently non-stick like Teflon, but its smooth, glazed surface is very easy to clean. We recommend lightly greasing the dish before baking to ensure an easy release.
Quality One is the highest grade assigned to Polish pottery, indicating that the piece is free of significant defects or imperfections in the clay, glaze, or handpainted design.
