Know before you buy
Yes, this piece is both microwave and dishwasher safe, making it practical for everyday use despite its artisanal appearance.
No, this earthenware platter is not oven safe. It should be used for serving prepared food rather than cooking or reheating in the oven.
The platter measures approximately 14.76 inches by 10.24 inches. Its size and oval shape make it ideal for serving appetizers, side dishes, or a main course for a small group.
Because each piece is handcrafted, there may be slight variations in the glaze and texture. These minor differences are part of the charm and authenticity of Bordallo Pinheiro’s artisanal process.
The platter features a textured surface designed to mimic the natural veins and folds of a cabbage leaf. While it has a glazed finish that makes it easy to clean, it retains the tactile, organic feel of the original design.
