Know before you buy
No, the Chelsea Duet collection is not microwave or dishwasher safe. Due to the delicate gold line accents and fine bone china construction, we recommend hand washing these pieces to preserve their finish.
These pieces are sold individually. This allows you to build a custom collection tailored to your specific needs, whether you are looking for a full dinner service or just a few accent plates.
The dinner plate measures 10.5 inches in diameter, the salad plate and rim soup bowl are 8.5 inches, and the bread and butter plate is 6 inches.
While the collection is crafted with a refined aesthetic suitable for formal occasions, it is also designed for everyday use. However, please note that the pieces are not chip-resistant, so careful handling is advised.
Every piece in the Chelsea Duet collection is crafted in England, maintaining the brand's long-standing tradition of quality fine bone china production.
