Know before you buy
Yes, it is dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the gold accents, ensure you use a mild, non-citrus detergent and keep the water temperature at or below 60°C.
The teacup is sold individually and is designed to pair perfectly with the Allee Royale saucer. You will need to purchase the saucer separately to complete the set.
The cup has a capacity of 8 1/2 ounces, making it an ideal size for a standard serving of tea.
This teacup is crafted from fine Limoges porcelain, a high-quality material renowned for its durability, translucency, and status in French ceramic craftsmanship.
While the porcelain is dishwasher safe, we recommend avoiding abrasive sponges or harsh cleaning agents. Using a mild detergent and a gentle wash cycle will help preserve the luster of the gold detailing over time.
