Modern ceramic plates made from black stoneware clay & glazed blue on the inside. The outside has been left bare to expose the texture of the raw clay & create a contrast with the rest of the bowl. These handmade deep plates are perfect to use for pasta, soup, salad, risotto, cereal etc. Stoneware serving dinnerware to make every day special! The shape is slightly irregular making each plate unique. Size: D21cm x H4.5cm / 8.3" x 1.8" Every piece is glazed & fired at 1240oC, for extra strength & durability. Small differences in sizes, shapes & colors between the items may occur as they are all 100% handmade by me. Each ceramic product is formed individually by hand without using any molds & therefore have its own individual character, shape & imperfections. All ceramic materials are lead free & food safe. Care instructions: -All handmade pieces in my shop are made with stoneware clay & fired at 1240 celsius degrees, which means that they are durable enough to go to the dishwasher machine. However, I do no recommend it, because a strong detergent could harm the glaze on the plates over time. Hand washing is generally more friendly to handmade ceramic objects. -Unglazed clay surface is not porous but it is recommended not to have frequent contact with liquids such as oil or wine, because they can leave a permanent light stain on the surface of the clay. -It is also suggested that ceramic everyday objects (plates, bowls & cups) are not to be left with substances such as vinegar & lemon for long periods of time because this may lead to color alterations. -Avoid extreme & sudden temperature changes as it is likely to cause thermal shock to the pieces. All items are very well packed in bubble wrap & packing peanuts, inside a cardboard box to arrive safely to you. All shipments are done with Hellenic Post & the national postal operator in your country. This is the method that guarantees the best price & quality ratio. As I am a small producer I don’t have a big stock of items. I aim to post in-stock orders within 1-3 working days. Small custom made orders are usually ready within 3-4 weeks. Please contact me for questions, wholesale inquiries & custom orders. Many countries assess duties & taxes on imported packages. Buyers are responsible for any customs fees & import taxes that may apply due to their country’s regulations. As far as I know shipments within the EU are not subject to customs fees & the US threshold for imports is quite high (around 800$). If you have concerns about this you must consult the regulations in your country prior to your purchase.
