Know before you buy
No. Due to the delicate platinum trim, this piece is not safe for use in the dishwasher, microwave, oven, or freezer. Hand washing is required to preserve the finish.
This oval vegetable bowl measures 10 3/8 inches in diameter. Its shape and size are specifically designed for serving side dishes at a formal table.
Yes, as long as the pieces are from the original Paris (9727) pattern, they will feature the same cream porcelain body and platinum trim. It is a perfect match for completing an existing set.
To keep the platinum trim in pristine condition, always hand wash the bowl using a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh cleaners that could scratch or dull the metallic finish.
While the porcelain is high-quality, the platinum trim and the discontinued status of the pattern make this piece better suited for special occasions and formal dining rather than daily use.
