Know before you buy
These plates are specifically designed as soup plates, making them ideal for serving soups, stews, or pasta dishes. Their depth and 8.5-inch diameter also make them well-suited for first-course portions.
No, these plates are not microwave or dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing them to preserve the delicate pleated finish and the integrity of the porcelain.
These plates are not designed to be stackable. Due to their specific shape and embossed texture, you should store them carefully to avoid potential scratching or chipping.
While Pillivuyt is known for high-quality porcelain, these specific plates are not chip-resistant. They require careful handling during use and cleaning to maintain their appearance over time.
This set includes four plates. They are an excellent choice for intimate gatherings or as a base to build a larger collection for formal dining.
