Know before you buy
Because this plate features delicate platinum trim, it is not dishwasher, microwave, or oven safe. To preserve the finish and prevent tarnishing, we recommend hand washing with a mild detergent and drying immediately with a soft cloth.
At 10 1/2 inches in diameter, this is a standard-sized dinner plate. It provides ample surface area for formal main courses while maintaining a classic, balanced proportion for your table setting.
While the porcelain construction is durable, the platinum trim and formal floral design make this piece better suited for special occasions and holiday dining. Frequent daily use may accelerate wear on the metallic detailing.
The Holbrook Platinum pattern is identified by the number 2994. When purchasing, verify that your existing pieces share this specific pattern number to ensure the floral motif and platinum rim width align perfectly with your collection.
This plate features a traditional rimmed style. The rim provides a sophisticated frame for the floral motif and offers a convenient area for handling the plate without touching the food surface.
