Know before you buy
This dessert plate measures 8.25 inches (215.9 mm) in diameter, making it the standard size for serving cakes, tarts, or fruit courses.
No, these plates are not dishwasher or microwave safe. Due to the delicate hand-painted artistry and fine porcelain construction, they should be hand-washed only to preserve the finish.
These plates are not designed to be stackable. We recommend using plate dividers or felt protectors between each piece if you need to store them vertically to prevent scratching the hand-painted surfaces.
Because each piece is individually hand-painted in Limoges, France, there may be subtle variations in the brushwork. This artisanal process ensures that every plate is a unique work of art rather than a mass-produced item.
This collection is crafted from fine porcelain, which is prized for its elegance and translucency rather than high-impact durability. It is not chip-resistant, so we recommend handling each piece with care during use and cleaning.
