Know before you buy
No, this platter is not microwave safe due to the 18-karat gold rim, which contains metallic elements that can spark or damage the finish.
While the stoneware body is technically dishwasher safe, we strongly recommend hand washing this piece. The hand-painted gold rim is delicate and can fade or wear down over time if exposed to the harsh detergents and high heat of a dishwasher.
To keep the 18-karat gold rim looking its best, avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh cleaning chemicals. A gentle hand wash with mild soap and a soft cloth is all that is needed to maintain its luster.
At 16.25 inches long and 13 inches wide, this platter is quite spacious. It is well-suited for a whole roasted chicken, a large side of fish, or a generous arrangement of appetizers.
Yes, the stoneware construction is oven safe. However, ensure you avoid sudden temperature changes, such as moving it directly from a cold refrigerator to a hot oven, to prevent thermal shock.
The platter features a high-quality, scratch-resistant glossy glaze. While it is designed for durability, we recommend using serving utensils rather than sharp knives directly on the surface to keep the finish pristine for years to come.
