What customers say
Customers deeply cherish the Noritake Petals Plus pattern for its exquisite elegance and timeless appeal. Reviewers consistently praise the delicate floral motif and the sophisticated platinum banding, noting the excellent craftsmanship, fine weight, and balance of the pieces. This china truly elevates special occasions. The main concerns involve maintenance and sourcing. Because the platinum trim requires careful handwashing, some modern users find this inconvenient. Furthermore, long term owners report difficulty and high cost when trying to locate replacement pieces. Despite these logistical challenges, the pattern's perceived quality and emotional attachment ensure it remains a highly valued and beloved set.
Know before you buy
Because this is a vintage fine bone china piece, it is not safe for use in the dishwasher, microwave, oven, or freezer. We recommend hand washing these plates gently to preserve the delicate floral pattern and the integrity of the china.
The coupe shape features a smooth, continuous curve from the center to the edge without a traditional wide rim. This design offers a larger surface area for food and provides a sleek, modern silhouette that feels elegant for formal dining.
While the bone china is high quality, it is not chip-resistant and is intended for formal occasions rather than heavy daily use. Given its status as a discontinued pattern from 1981, it is best treated as a collectible or special-occasion piece.
The Petals Plus pattern features a soft blue and pink floral motif that pairs beautifully with solid white or pastel-toned fine china. Because of its classic coupe shape, it integrates well into a collection that favors vintage, romantic, or floral aesthetics.
This dinner plate measures 10 1/2 inches (266.7 mm) in diameter. It is a standard size for a main course plate, fitting comfortably on most formal place settings.
