Know before you buy
Due to the delicate 22-karat gold decoration, this plate should be hand-washed only. Using a dishwasher can cause the gold detailing to fade or wear away over time.
No, this plate is not microwave-safe. The metallic gold decoration will spark and cause damage to both the plate and your appliance.
The plate is crafted from high-quality fine porcelain, which provides a durable yet elegant base for the intricate gold-leaf design.
To protect the hand-decorated gold surface, we recommend using felt plate dividers or soft cloths between each piece when stacking them for storage.
The Aves Gold pattern is a distinct, iconic design within the Royal Crown Derby portfolio. While it pairs beautifully with other white or gold-rimmed porcelain, it is a unique statement piece that stands out on its own.
