Know before you buy
Yes, these earthenware pieces are designed for serving food. However, because they are handmade and feature delicate raised details, we recommend hand washing them to preserve the finish and prevent chipping.
Due to the artisanal earthenware construction and raised relief designs, these pieces are not recommended for microwave or dishwasher use. Hand washing is best to maintain the integrity of the glaze and the intricate holly motifs.
The charger plate measures 13.3 inches in diameter, which is significantly larger than a standard dinner plate. It is intended to serve as a decorative base layer beneath your dinnerware to add a festive frame to your place setting.
Each piece is uniquely crafted, so you may notice slight variations in the glaze application or the placement of the holly motifs. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the handmade process and add to the charm of the collection.
The raised textures are best cleaned with a soft sponge or cloth and mild dish soap. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers, which could scratch the glaze or catch on the detailed relief work.
