Why this dishe earns its place
The larger mezze dish from the Rustics collection moves from amuse-bouches into genuine shareable portions. At 313 ml, each dish holds a dip or side large enough for two or three people to eat from, or a generous single starter on a sharing menu. The 140 mm diameter sits comfortably within a place setting without dominating the table.
Stoneware conducts heat steadily from oven to table, which means you can plate a hot dish — a baked camembert, warm olives in oil, gratinéed cheese, or a stew — and set it directly before the guest. The brown glaze reads rustic and natural, fitting Mediterranean, Spanish, and farmhouse-styled menus. The finish also hides minor marks and wear better than polished crockery, so the dishes maintain character through months of service.
These are dishwasher-safe and freezer-safe, allowing you to prep components a day or two ahead and warm them in the oven during service. The 140 mm diameter stacks for storage, though stoneware is more fragile than commercial crockery and deserves careful handling in the dishwasher.
