This round serving platter is hand-painted and ready to be displayed. It is both durable and attractive, and will not chip. Each pattern will vary. Polish Pottery obtains their hand-painted stoneware directly from Boleslawiec, Poland. The colors are inspired by the blue, green, and earth tones of the peacock. All are made of indigenous white clay, and are fired at excess of 1350 degrees Celsius so that they retain both heat and cold for long periods of time. A round serving platter is a fabulous addition to a housewarming gift basket!
