Know before you buy
This piece is designed specifically as a charger plate. It serves as a decorative base for your dinnerware to elevate a table setting rather than as a primary plate for direct food service.
Because of its artisanal finish, this plate is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing it gently with mild soap and drying it immediately to preserve the integrity of the ceramic and the abstract pattern.
No, the Conterrâneo High Plate is not microwave safe. It is intended for decorative use and table styling, so it should be kept away from high-heat appliances.
The plate is a result of a transatlantic partnership between Via Coquina and artist Brunno Jahara. It reflects a shared cultural heritage, blending contemporary aesthetics with traditional Portuguese ceramic craftsmanship.
Each plate is meticulously handcrafted in Portugal, meaning there may be subtle variations in the abstract pattern and finish. These slight differences are a hallmark of the artisanal process and make each piece unique.
