What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Simon Pearce Barre Alabaster Dinnerware for its superior craftsmanship and timeless elegance. Reviewers consistently highlight the substantial weight and premium feel, often describing the pieces as heirloom quality.

Know before you buy
The collection is crafted from earthenware, which gives it a substantial, artisanal feel and a unique matte finish.
No, this collection is not dishwasher, microwave, or oven safe. Due to the handcrafted nature of the earthenware, we recommend hand washing these pieces to preserve their finish.
The collection features a distinctively modern, asymmetrical design with an organic rim. It is intended to offer a bold, sculptural presence on your table rather than a traditional, uniform look.
The five-piece set includes a dinner plate, side plate, pasta bowl, bowl, and mug. It covers the essentials for a single place setting, though you may want to purchase multiple sets to accommodate guests.
Because of the unique, asymmetrical design and organic rim shape, these pieces are not designed to be stacked. You will need to account for more shelf space when storing them.
