Know before you buy
Yes, the 24-karat gold edging is applied with professional-grade techniques, ensuring it remains resilient. While it is dishwasher safe, we recommend using a gentle cycle and mild detergent to maintain the luster of the gold over time.
The variations in the coral motif are subtle and intentional, designed to give the collection an organic, artisanal character. When placed together, the consistent color palette and uniform gold rims ensure the set looks cohesive and sophisticated rather than mismatched.
Limoges porcelain is a high-quality, translucent ceramic fired at extremely high temperatures, which gives it superior strength, a brilliant white finish, and a refined, lightweight feel. It is considered the gold standard for fine dining dinnerware due to its durability and elegant aesthetic.
Yes, these plates are dishwasher safe. To protect the hand-finished gold detailing and the integrity of the porcelain, we suggest loading them carefully to avoid contact with other dishes and using a low-heat, delicate cycle.
Because of the delicate 24-karat gold trim, we recommend using felt plate dividers or soft cloths between each plate when stacking. This prevents the bottom of one plate from scratching the gold-rimmed surface of the one beneath it.
