Know before you buy
These plates are not recommended for microwave or dishwasher use. To maintain the lustrous finish and gold detailing, we suggest hand washing them with a soft cloth and mild detergent.
Yes, they are durable enough to serve hot appetizers or small main courses. However, avoid placing them directly under a broiler or in high-heat ovens to protect the decorative finish.
Because of the unique nature of the marbleized design, each plate features a slightly different pattern. This ensures that every piece in your set of four has a distinct, artisanal look.
With an 8.25-inch diameter, these plates work beautifully as chargers or underlays for smaller bowls or dessert plates. The black and gold palette provides a sophisticated frame that elevates the presentation of your other dinnerware.
The plates feature finely rounded, smooth edges. This design choice provides a modern, sleek profile while ensuring the plates are comfortable to handle when serving guests.
