Know before you buy
Each plate is meticulously hand-painted and crafted from fine porcelain in Limoges, France, a region world-renowned for its high-quality ceramic production.
Due to the delicate hand-painted finish, this plate is not dishwasher, microwave, oven, or freezer safe. We recommend hand washing with a soft cloth and mild detergent to preserve the integrity of the Lavande color accent.
Measuring 6.25 inches in diameter, this plate is specifically designed for bread and butter service at a formal table setting. Its size is optimized to hold a single bread roll or a small portion of butter alongside your main place setting.
This piece is an exclusive special order item that is custom-produced upon request. Because each plate is hand-painted to order in France, the extended lead time accounts for the artisanal craftsmanship required to complete your piece.
No, this plate is not designed to be stackable. To prevent scratching or damage to the hand-painted rim, we recommend storing these plates individually or using felt plate dividers between them.
