Know before you buy
This plate is hand-painted and crafted in the renowned porcelain ateliers of Limoges, France, by R. Haviland & C. Parlon.
Due to the delicate hand-painted finish, this plate is not dishwasher, microwave, oven, or freezer safe. We recommend hand-washing with a soft cloth and mild detergent to preserve the integrity of the design.
Because each piece is custom-produced upon order, please anticipate a lead time of 8 to 12 weeks for your item to be crafted and prepared for shipment.
While the 11-inch diameter is standard for dinner service, the plate is designed primarily for formal occasions. Its bespoke, hand-painted nature makes it better suited for special events rather than daily high-frequency use.
No, this item is a special order piece that is custom-made for you. As such, it is non-cancelable and non-returnable once the order has been placed.
