Know before you buy
Yes, it is both food safe and durable enough for regular use throughout the holiday season. It is crafted from Terra Bianca earthenware, which is designed to withstand the demands of festive entertaining.
Yes, this platter is dishwasher safe. We recommend using a gentle cycle and non-abrasive detergents to preserve the hand-painted details over time.
No, each piece is individually hand-painted by Italian artisans, meaning there will be slight variations in the brushwork and design. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of the craftsmanship and make each platter one-of-a-kind.
The platter measures 16.5 inches long by 7.5 inches wide. Its narrow, oval shape makes it ideal for serving appetizers, holiday cookies, or small side dishes like roasted vegetables.
The platter features a smooth, glazed surface over the Terra Bianca earthenware. This makes it easy to clean and provides a clean canvas for the Old St. Nick illustration.
