Know before you buy
Yes, these bowls are dishwasher safe. Despite the delicate gold detailing, they are designed to withstand regular cleaning cycles.
Absolutely. With a 32 oz capacity and an 8.25-inch diameter, these bowls are well-suited for serving pasta, hearty stews, or large salads.
Fine bone china is known for its high strength and chip resistance compared to standard porcelain. While elegant, these bowls are durable enough for regular use.
The gold band is a high-quality finish designed for longevity. To keep the metallic detailing looking its best, we recommend using a gentle, non-abrasive detergent in the dishwasher.
Each bowl has a height of 1.5 inches. This shallow, wide profile makes them ideal for showcasing plated meals while providing enough depth to prevent spills.
