Know before you buy
Yes, this saucer is dishwasher safe. However, due to the delicate hand-painted platinum detailing, we recommend using a gentle cycle and mild detergent to maintain the finish over time.
No, this piece is not microwave safe. The hand-painted platinum thread contains metallic elements that are not suitable for microwave use.
The saucer measures 4.3 inches in diameter, which is specifically sized to accommodate a standard espresso cup.
The platinum thread is applied through a rigorous ten-phase craftsmanship process, ensuring high durability. While it is a premium finish, proper care—such as avoiding abrasive scrubbers—will help preserve its luster.
