Hermes Soleil d’Hermès dessert plate n°2
Best decorative accent for collectors of luxury porcelain tableware.
Soleil d'Hermes transports us into the warmth of summer, under a Mediterranean sun, its intense blazing light transforms the outlines of architecture and objects. The spontaneous nature of the design elevates yellow in subtle shades that give the color strength and depth. The fine line of the contours and cross-hatching reinforces the intensity of the sun. The set deploys a graphic illusion focused on radiating light, curves, and abstraction to create a kaleidoscope of shapes and rhythms.

Know before you buy
While the fine porcelain construction is durable enough for occasional dining, the intricate hand-applied screen details and delicate finish make it best suited as a decorative accent piece or for special occasions to preserve its longevity.
To protect the hand-painted finish and gold accents, we recommend hand-washing the plate with a mild detergent and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive scrubbers and harsh chemicals that could dull the surface or damage the design.
The 8.2-inch square silhouette offers a striking contrast to traditional round place settings. It works beautifully as a standalone dessert plate or as a layered accent piece atop a larger, neutral-toned dinner plate.
Due to the fine porcelain material and the delicate gold detailing, this plate is not microwave safe. We strongly advise against using a dishwasher to ensure the integrity of the hand-applied patterns remains intact over time.
Yes, each plate includes the original Hermès presentation box and a care booklet, making it an excellent choice for gifting or secure storage when not in use.
