Know before you buy

Yes, the Yoshizawa Bread Plate is fully microwave and dishwasher safe, making it practical for daily use despite its handcrafted, artisanal appearance.
The medium size is ideal for serving individual desserts, light snacks, or small portions of cheese and crackers. Its rustic aesthetic also makes it a great choice for casual wine and cheese pairings.
The texture and glaze variations are a signature of the Yoshizawa style, designed to mimic the look of a rustic bread crust. While these features add character, they are durable and do not require any special handling beyond standard ceramic care.
The plate is made from durable ceramic intended for everyday use. However, as with all handcrafted ceramics, it is best to avoid extreme thermal shock and handle it with the same care you would give any high-quality stoneware.
