Know before you buy
No, the silver trim contains metallic elements and should not be placed in the microwave. We recommend hand washing this set to preserve the integrity and shine of the silver detailing.
The set is crafted from fine porcelain, which offers a lightweight and refined feel. While it is elegant and thin, it is durable enough for regular use when handled with care.
The saucer features a precision-molded center hollow designed to securely nestle the base of the cup. This design prevents the cup from sliding, ensuring a stable and harmonious presentation.
To protect the delicate silver trim from fading or tarnishing over time, we strongly recommend hand washing this set with mild soap rather than using a dishwasher.
The APOLLO set is sold as a two-piece unit consisting of one cup and one saucer. You can purchase multiple sets to accommodate your guests, but individual components are not sold separately.
