{"product_id":"jules-oval-stoneware-platter-cream","title":"Jules Oval Stoneware Platter - Cream","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis oval platter is made entirely of stoneware and finished by hand in a reactive glaze, so the surface moves from a soft cream across most of the piece to a deeper, speckled patch of glaze that pools at one end. It measures 33.5cm long, 18.5cm wide and 3.5cm tall, which puts it firmly in serving territory: long enough to carry a main dish down the table, narrow enough to sit between place settings without crowding them. The shallow sides rise into a gentle rim, which gives sauces and dressings somewhere to gather. It weighs 0.855KG.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse it for the dishes that sit in the middle of the table for everyone to share: sliced roast chicken, grilled fish, roasted vegetables, cheese and crackers, or olives and bread to start an evening. Its long, narrow form suits a dining table, a kitchen island or a sideboard laid out as a buffet, and it works as well for a quiet weekend lunch for two as for a dinner party. It suits anyone who cooks for others and prefers a handpainted surface to uniform tableware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe finish is a reactive glaze, painted by hand. A reactive glaze changes in the heat of the kiln, so the speckling and the way the glaze pools are never quite the same twice. Day to day it asks little of you: it goes in the dishwasher, it can go in the microwave to reheat leftovers, and it can go in the oven, so you can warm it before plating up a hot dish. Stoneware is fired at high temperatures, which leaves it dense and hard-wearing. For styling, let the cream glaze set off food with plenty of colour and pair it with linen and wooden boards for a relaxed table; between meals, stand it upright on an open shelf so the glazed face shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% Stoneware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCream\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eReactive glaze, Handpainted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDishwasher safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMicrowave safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOven safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFood safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.855KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is this platter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is 33.5cm long, 18.5cm wide and 3.5cm tall, a good serving size for a main dish or a shared plate of starters in the middle of the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is it made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is made of 100% stoneware, finished with a reactive glaze that is painted by hand, and it weighs 0.855KG.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it go in the dishwasher?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
