Product Insights
The Nuanced Red Small Plate from Simons Maison uses a copper oxide glaze that shifts color with hand-applied thickness variation, creating a unique pattern on each piece. It is dishwasher safe and resists scratching, compliant with Health Canada limits for leachable lead and cadmium. However, it is not oven-safe and requires avoiding sudden temperature changes to prevent cracking. Each plate measures 6.75 inches for consistent stacking, with matching pieces sold separately.
