Know before you buy
Yes, the plate is food safe. However, because it features hand-painted gold detailing, it is best reserved for formal occasions to preserve the integrity of the finish.
No. Due to the delicate hand-painted gold accents, this plate is not microwave, dishwasher, oven, or freezer safe. We recommend hand washing with a soft cloth to maintain its appearance.
The Versailles Gold dinner plate measures 11 inches (279.4 mm) in diameter, which is a standard, substantial size for formal dinner service.
Because the plates are not designed to be stacked, we recommend using individual plate dividers or felt protectors between each piece if you must store them vertically or in a pile to prevent scratching the gold pattern.
No, this piece is not specifically treated for chip resistance. It is crafted from fine porcelain, so it should be handled with care during use and cleaning.
