Know before you buy
While the platter has a total diameter of 12.4 inches, the internal serving surface measures 10.4 inches. This is the space available for the base of your dessert.
As this is a fine ceramic piece from Haviland, we recommend hand washing to preserve the finish and integrity of the porcelain. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers to prevent surface scratching.
The platter is designed with a sturdy pedestal base that provides a stable, elevated foundation for your desserts. It is well-balanced for standard cakes and tarts, though it should be placed on a level surface.
While designed as a tart platter, the classic round shape and durable ceramic material make it perfectly suitable for serving savory appetizers like cheese, charcuterie, or hors d'oeuvres.
The platter features a clean, classic design. While it does not have a high, pronounced lip, the slight curvature of the plate provides enough containment for standard tarts and cakes.
