Know before you buy

No, this set is neither dishwasher nor microwave safe. Due to the delicate hand-painted platinum detailing, we recommend hand washing with a soft cloth to preserve the finish.
Each Linae set is custom-produced in Limoges, France, specifically for your order. Because of the meticulous hand-painting process, please anticipate a lead time of 8 to 12 weeks for delivery.
While the set is crafted from high-quality, durable porcelain suitable for formal dining, it remains a fine china product. It is intended for special occasions and careful handling rather than daily, heavy-duty use.
