Know before you buy
Each place setting includes a dinner plate, a salad plate, a bread and butter plate, and a matching cup and saucer set.
Because Sunday Rose is no longer in production, you will need to source additional pieces through secondary markets, estate sales, or specialized china replacement services. It is advisable to purchase complete sets when possible to ensure color and pattern consistency.
While the collection is designed with the elegance required for special occasions, its durable Waterford craftsmanship makes it robust enough for regular use. However, you should handle it with the care typically reserved for fine porcelain to preserve the pattern's finish.
To maintain the integrity of the pattern and glaze, we recommend hand washing your pieces with a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh abrasive scrubbers or high-heat dishwasher cycles, which can cause fading or damage to the delicate design over time.
Many fine china patterns from Waterford feature gold or platinum banding that is not microwave-safe. Please inspect your specific pieces for metallic trim, as any metal content will cause arcing and damage if placed in a microwave.
