Know before you buy
Each setting includes a 10-inch dinner plate, an 8.25-inch dessert plate, a 7-inch bread and butter plate, a can-style tea cup, and a matching saucer.
No, this porcelain set is not microwave, oven, or freezer safe. Due to the delicate gold detailing, it should be kept away from high-heat appliances.
Yes, the porcelain is food safe for daily use. However, please note that the finish is not lead-free, so it should be used for dining rather than food storage.
Because this set features refined gold borders and is not chip-resistant, we recommend hand washing with a gentle detergent to preserve the integrity of the pattern and the finish.
While the design is inspired by 18th-century porcelain, its versatile aesthetic works well for both formal dinner parties and elevated everyday dining. Just keep in mind that the pieces are not stackable, so you will need to account for shelf space when storing them.
