Know before you buy
Because each plate is individually crafted, you should expect slight variations in pattern and size. While they will share the same design aesthetic, each piece is truly one-of-a-kind rather than a mass-produced duplicate.
As with most artisanal ceramics, we recommend hand washing to preserve the finish and integrity of the piece. Avoid using them in the microwave or dishwasher to ensure the longevity of the artist's work.
The plate measures approximately 7.5 inches in diameter. Please note that due to the handmade nature of the ceramics, there may be very minor variations in these dimensions.
Yes, every Opal Tahiti Dessert Plate is signed and dated by Ellen Evans. This signature serves as both a mark of authenticity and a record of when your specific piece was created.
These plates are designed as functional art. While they are beautiful enough to display, they are fully intended for use as part of your table service to elevate your daily dining experience.
