Simple and elegant, the dinner plates can be dressed up or down for any occasion. Fable's ceramics are one-of-a-kind, hand-finished in the Tagus Valley region of Portugal with locally sourced and recycled clays that are fired twice to create everyday durability. All ceramics are susceptible to superficial marks from your flatware. They can be easily removed with a scouring powder (like bar keepers friend) and Fable's Tawashi brush, not included. Each ceramic is hand-finished, organically shaped and one of a kind. Stoneware contains natural flecks that come to the surface during firing and may show through lighter glazes. Slight variations may occur.
