Know before you buy
No, this piece is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the integrity of the Majolica glaze and the textured ceramic, we recommend hand washing it gently with mild soap and water.
The stand has a total diameter of 12 inches, which provides ample space for a standard 9-inch or 10-inch round cake. The scalloped edges may slightly reduce the flat surface area, so it is best suited for cakes up to 10 inches in diameter.
Despite being a vintage collectible from the 1990s, this item is in new condition. It comes complete with its original back stamp and manufacturer label, ensuring it has never been used.
This piece is designed specifically for indoor use. Because it is crafted from fine ceramic and stoneware with a delicate Majolica finish, it should be kept away from harsh outdoor elements to prevent potential chipping or fading.
The stand features a sturdy, wide pedestal base designed to provide a stable foundation for your desserts. Its weight and construction are balanced to support the weight of a standard cake or tiered pastry display.
