Yes, this porcelain piece is microwave safe. However, due to its size and weight, ensure it fits comfortably within your microwave to avoid contact with the interior walls.
While the porcelain is dishwasher safe, we recommend using a gentle cycle and ensuring the plate is securely positioned to prevent chipping. Hand washing is often preferred for high-quality porcelain to maintain the integrity of the relief design over time.
The design is subtle and tactile, relying on light and shadow to highlight the intricate architectural patterns. It offers a clean, monochromatic look that adds depth to a table without overwhelming your other dinnerware.
The plate has a diameter of 329 mm (approximately 13 inches) and a height of 29 mm. It is a substantial piece, weighing 1124 grams, which gives it a high-quality, weighted feel on the table.
