Know before you buy
This plate measures 6 1/2 inches in diameter, making it perfectly sized for appetizers, small desserts, or bread service.
Yes, despite its delicate hand-drawn details and fine faience construction, this plate is dishwasher safe for everyday convenience.
Faience is a fine, tin-glazed earthenware known for its rich, creamy finish and ability to hold intricate hand-painted details. It offers a warmer, more artisanal aesthetic compared to the stark, glassy surface of traditional porcelain.
While the plates are dishwasher safe, we recommend avoiding the microwave to preserve the integrity of the faience and the hand-drawn finish over time.
The scalloped, shell-shaped edges are beautiful but slightly more delicate than a standard rim. We recommend using felt plate dividers if you plan on stacking them to prevent any chipping or scratching.
