Porcelana Schmidt’s Fine Porcelain Fruit Dish is perfect for serving individual fruit salads and smaller portions. Its beautiful traditional rim design is casual enough for use at everyday meals, yet elegant enough for carefree entertaining at special occasions. The smaller welled dish (5.75-inch, 6-ounce) also works perfectly for enjoying greens and fruit salads, cereals, soups, side dishes, ice cream, desserts, or accompaniments like olives, jams, and candies. Schmidt’s porcelain performs beautifully at every dining occasion, from breakfast to lunch or brunch, for holiday meals, party buffets, even outdoor entertaining. Its natural heat-retaining characteristics keep food warm longer and it’s microwave safe for easy reheats. Since 1945, family-owned Porcelana Schmidt in Santa Catarina, Brazil has crafted each piece of their fine-porcelain dinnerware with the highest level of artisanship and care for a superior product. By using purer, higher-quality materials and a firing process that doesn’t cause oxidation, Porcelana Schmidt dinnerware has a whiter and brighter appearance over other porcelains produced. Its 30-percent quartz level and higher firing temperatures (2,264°F) results in near-zero porosity with more durability and scratch resistance than other lower-fired ceramics products available. Durable, heat resistant, free from lead and cadmium, Porcelana Schmidt’s dinnerware is safe for use in the freezer, microwave, and oven (to 225-degrees Fahrenheit), and dishwasher safe for easy cleanup
