These simple and elegant dessert plates size, are perfect as a side plate or as a plate to accompany an elegant afternoon tea. The clean lines of porcelain speak of sensuality, transparency and unicity but also of practicality. Oven, microwave and dishwasher safe although a gentle hand wash would be more appropriate. Entirely crafted by hand in my studio in Italy. The photos represent the exact piece that I'm going to ship. Have a look at my shop for more dinnerware to complete your precious table! TECHNIQUES & MATERIALS The delicate look and lightweight feel is achieved by using very thin slabs of porcelain. Each piece is carefully slab built using porcelain in my studio in Italy, glazed in transparent inside, sanded smooth outside and fired twice to 1255°. Everything I use is food-safe. The clay I use is a high quality Limoges porcelain and it has high translucency. Its colour after firing tends to a warm white. WHY CHOOSING PORCELAIN Porcelain is highly resistant and tends to last much better over the years than standard ceramic. That is because porcelain is denser, more uniform and harder than ceramics. It is fired to higher temperature, giving high strength to the finished product and making it more durable, most crack-resistant, almost impossible to stain, and with no absorption problems therefore completely food safe. CARE FOR ENVIRONMENT Clay is a natural and long-lasting material, therefore environmentally friendly. It is part of our tradition and history as many everyday objects were made of clay since ancient times. Since I care about environment, I use recycled packaging when possible and ask you to re-use it. With your purchase you help me support Greenpeace: 1% of the value of every sale will be destined to protect our planet. Thanks for visiting my shop! Silvia SIZE
