Know before you buy
This plate is specifically sized at 6.25 inches to serve as a side plate for bread and butter service during formal dining settings.
Because this piece is hand-painted, it is not dishwasher, microwave, or oven safe. We recommend hand-washing with a mild detergent and a soft cloth to preserve the integrity of the finish.
While the plate is food-safe and lead-free, it is crafted as a delicate, hand-painted piece. It is best reserved for formal occasions rather than heavy, daily use to protect the artisanal finish.
No, these plates are not designed to be stackable. To prevent scratching or damage to the hand-painted surface, we recommend using protective felt dividers between each plate if you are storing them together.
Each plate is meticulously hand-painted and produced in Limoges, France, a region world-renowned for its high-quality porcelain craftsmanship.
