Know before you buy
No, this is a single salt dish and does not include a serving spoon.
Yes, its compact size and open design make it suitable for serving small portions of spices, herbs, or even as a decorative catch-all for jewelry.
Like all plated finishes, it may develop a patina if not cared for properly. To maintain its luster, ensure you hand wash it gently and dry it thoroughly after each use.
Yes, the pewter construction is food-safe. However, we recommend avoiding leaving highly acidic or salty substances in the dish for extended periods to protect the finish.
Simply hand wash the dish using mild soap and warm water. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can scratch or strip the gold-over-silver plating.
