Know before you buy
At 8.5 inches, this plate is perfectly sized for salads, appetizers, desserts, or a curated cheese course. It is slightly smaller than a standard dinner plate, making it ideal for lighter courses.
Yes, the Athéna Platinum plate is both microwave and dishwasher safe. However, because it features a delicate platinum rim, we recommend using a gentle cycle and mild detergent to maintain the finish over time.
The platinum decoration is high-quality, but like all precious metal accents, it can be susceptible to scratching if handled roughly. To keep the rim looking pristine, avoid stacking the plates without protective felt liners between them.
Yes, this porcelain plate is oven-safe, allowing you to warm up appetizers or desserts before serving. Ensure the oven temperature is moderate and avoid extreme thermal shock by not moving the plate directly from a freezer to a hot oven.
Every piece in the Athéna Platinum collection is crafted in France by Bernardaud, a brand renowned for its long-standing expertise in fine porcelain production.
