Know before you buy
Yes, the stoneware construction is fully dishwasher and microwave safe. They are also oven safe up to 450°F, making them versatile for warming appetizers or side dishes.
These plates measure 8.5 inches in diameter, which is the standard size for a salad or dessert plate. They are significantly smaller than a typical 10- to 11-inch dinner plate, making them ideal for smaller portions or appetizers.
The hand-thrown aesthetic refers to the subtle rippling and organic shape of the stoneware, which gives each piece a unique, artisanal look. Despite this appearance, they are durable and designed for everyday use, not delicate display.
Yes, the plates feature a slight foot that allows them to stack securely. Their low profile and consistent design make them easy to store in standard kitchen cabinets.
Stoneware is generally quite durable, but like all ceramic dinnerware, it can show marks from metal cutlery over time. Using standard flatware is perfectly fine, though you may notice light surface marks with heavy, long-term use.
