Know before you buy
Yes, this plate is dishwasher safe, provided you keep the temperature at or below 50°C (120°F). Due to the delicate gold threading, we recommend using a gentle cycle to preserve the finish.
No, this piece is not microwave or oven safe. The gold detailing and porcelain composition are not designed to withstand high heat or electromagnetic radiation.
The plate measures 9.45 inches in diameter and has a height of 1.7 inches. Its rimmed, Antico Doccia shape provides a generous surface area for soups and pasta dishes.
While Ginori 1735 porcelain is high-quality and durable, it is not specifically treated to be chip-resistant. We recommend handling it with care during cleaning and storage to maintain its pristine condition.
These plates are not designed to be stacked. To prevent scratching the gold threading or damaging the porcelain, we recommend storing them individually or using protective felt separators between them.
