Know before you buy
This plate measures 18 cm, which is approximately 7 inches. Its compact square footprint makes it ideal for individual dessert portions or small appetizers.
The Albus colorway is a refined, sophisticated white that serves as a neutral canvas for the signature Oriente Italiano floral pattern. It is designed to coordinate seamlessly with other pieces in the collection while maintaining a clean, elegant aesthetic.
As a high-quality porcelain piece crafted in Italy, it is durable enough to handle standard warm dessert servings. However, it is primarily designed as a dessert or accent plate rather than for heavy-duty main courses.
To maintain the integrity of the delicate Oriente Italiano pattern and the finish of the porcelain, we recommend hand washing with a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh abrasive sponges that could scratch the surface over time.
Yes, the Albus colorway is specifically designed to be versatile. Its subtle, monochromatic pattern allows it to act as a sophisticated accent piece that can be layered with solid-colored dinnerware or mixed with other vibrant pieces from the Oriente Italiano collection.
