Know before you buy
Because this collection features delicate gold banding, it is not recommended for the dishwasher. To preserve the gold trim and the raised motif, we suggest hand-washing all pieces with a mild detergent.
No, this pattern is not microwave-safe. The inner gold band contains metallic elements that will spark and damage the china if exposed to microwave radiation.
A standard place setting for this pattern typically includes a dinner plate, salad plate, bread and butter plate, teacup, and saucer.
The raised motif is integrated into the fine bone china during the manufacturing process, making it quite durable for regular use. However, you should take care when stacking the plates to avoid chipping the textured surfaces.
As a discontinued pattern, Fruits of Life is considered a collectible. While it may require searching through secondary markets or specialty china retailers, it remains a popular choice for those looking to complete or expand an existing set.
