Know before you buy
Because of the delicate 24k gold rim, this platter is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing it gently with a soft sponge and mild soap, then drying it immediately with a soft cloth to maintain the finish.
No, this piece is not microwave or oven safe. The metallic gold detailing and the fine Limoges porcelain composition are not designed to withstand high heat or electromagnetic waves.
The platter measures 16.5 inches by 12 inches. Its generous size and oval shape make it ideal for serving main courses like roasted meats, whole fish, or a curated selection of appetizers for formal gatherings.
The palm leaf motif is applied using a high-quality chromolithography technique, which is fused into the glaze during the firing process. With proper hand-washing and careful storage, the design will remain vibrant and intact for years.
The 24k gold rim is hand-painted and is a decorative feature of the porcelain. While it does not tarnish like silver, it should be kept away from abrasive cleaners or scouring pads to prevent scratching or fading of the gold finish.
