Stoneware plates are naturally able to maintain even temperatures, both during and after the cooking process. Scorch that may alter flavour is prevented, dessert and cold soups are kept cold, and warmth is maintained in soups and stews. Rounded or organically shaped dinnerware, handmade by local artisans and designer-made, our collection is special and unique by its matte finish.

Handmade Material: Enameled stoneware Completely free of toxic heavy metals (like cadmium and lead) and carcinogens found in other, less robust, ceramic forms. Made in Tunisia Use & Care: • Quick and extreme changes in temperature could cause thermal shock causing your stoneware to crack. • Do not preheat stoneware and do not place wet stoneware in the oven. • Do not use on the grill • Do not place dense, frozen food items on Stoneware. • Do not place hot stoneware directly on a cold surface as it may cause cracks, use trivet or a towel and let it cool down to avoid such cracks. •The use of sharp utensils may leave slight scratches. A few options can help you remove them; rub your dishes using a good scrubber with baking soda, cream of tartare or a scouring powder (Bar Keepers Friend) with water.
