Know before you buy
The crackled effect, or craquelure, is a decorative glaze technique that creates a web of fine lines beneath the surface. Despite the visual texture, the plate is finished with a smooth, glossy glaze that makes it easy to clean and comfortable to use.
Yes, these plates are crafted from fine stoneware, which is known for its density and resistance to chipping. They are designed to balance artisanal aesthetics with the durability required for everyday dining.
Absolutely. The Madeira collection is both microwave and dishwasher safe, making it a practical choice for modern households that prioritize convenience alongside style.
The 11-inch diameter is a standard size for a dinner plate, providing ample space for main courses. It should fit comfortably in most standard dishwashers, though it is always a good idea to check your rack clearance if you have a compact model.
The Madeira collection is specifically designed for mixing and matching. The vivid colors and rustic, nature-inspired aesthetic pair beautifully with neutral stoneware or other pieces from the Costa Nova line to create a layered, eclectic table setting.
