Know before you buy
The matte glaze is designed to be durable, but like most porous-feeling finishes, it can be susceptible to stubborn pigments from highly acidic or staining foods if left for long periods. We recommend rinsing the pieces shortly after use to maintain their pristine appearance.
Yes, the Rinka collection is crafted from durable porcelain, making it safe for both microwave and dishwasher use. However, we recommend avoiding extreme temperature shocks to preserve the integrity of the glaze over time.
The petal-like scalloped rim is specifically engineered for nesting. The pieces stack securely and compactly, making them a practical choice for those with limited cabinet space.
While the collection is designed to evoke the rustic, tactile warmth of hand-formed clay, the surface is smooth to the touch. You get the aesthetic charm of earthenware with the refined, functional benefits of porcelain.
The 21cm plate is the most versatile option for main courses, while the 14cm and 17cm sizes are better suited for appetizers, side dishes, or desserts.
