Know before you buy
Because of the delicate gold detailing, this plate is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing with a mild detergent and a soft cloth to preserve the finish.
No, these plates are not microwave or oven safe. The metallic gold accents can spark in the microwave, and the fine bone china is not designed to withstand high heat.
The fluted edge adds a decorative texture to the rim, but it does mean the plates are not designed to be stacked in high piles. We recommend using plate dividers or felt pads between them if you plan to store them vertically or in a stack to prevent scratching.
The gold pattern is a signature feature of Royal Crown Derby craftsmanship. While it is durable, it is best to avoid abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemicals to ensure the gold remains vibrant for years to come.
While the Elizabeth Salad Plate is exceptionally beautiful, it is specifically designed for formal dining. Due to its fine bone china construction and delicate gold decoration, it is best reserved for special occasions rather than daily wear.
