Know before you buy
This bowl measures 4.3 inches in diameter. Given its compact size, it is best suited for serving small portions, such as amuse-bouches, palate cleansers, or individual servings of soup.
The platinum motif is applied with high-quality craftsmanship characteristic of Limoges porcelain. To maintain the integrity of the matte and shiny finish, we recommend hand washing with a gentle detergent rather than using a dishwasher.
No, this piece is not microwave safe. The platinum detailing is a metallic application, which will spark and damage the bowl if exposed to microwave radiation.
The design features a sophisticated interplay between matte and shiny finishes. This contrast creates a tactile and visual depth that feels refined and modern rather than purely decorative.
While the Athena Platinum collection is designed with formal dining in mind, its durable Limoges porcelain construction makes it sturdy enough for special occasion use. It is an excellent choice for elevating a dinner party or a celebratory meal.
