Know before you buy
Yes, the pewter bees are food-safe. They are securely attached to the bone china, allowing you to serve salads or desserts directly on the plate without concern.
Due to the delicate gold trim and the handcrafted pewter elements, we strongly recommend hand washing these plates. Dishwashers can cause the gold to fade and may damage the pewter finish over time.
No, this plate is not microwave safe. The gold trim contains metallic components that will spark and cause damage if placed in a microwave.
The plate measures 8.5 inches in diameter. This size is ideal for serving individual portions of salad, appetizers, or dessert courses.
To prevent scratching or chipping, we recommend using felt plate dividers or soft cloths between each plate when stacking. Avoid storing them in high-humidity areas to maintain the luster of the pewter.
