Product Information
Full details
This Mad & Len Small Plate is designed for individuals seeking a unique, handcrafted homeware piece. Its key benefit lies in its versatile use as a decorative object or for holding small items, adding a rustic yet contemporary touch to any space. A potential caveat is its hand-hammered iron construction, which results in a rustic, asymmetric aesthetic that may not suit minimalist decors. This plate is hand-made from pure iron with a hand-hammered finish, offering an elegant silhouette and a smooth matte surface.

FAQs
What material is the plate made from?
The plate is crafted from pure iron with a hand-hammered finish.
Is the plate food safe?
While it can be used for dry food items like fruit, it is not a certified food-grade item. It is best used for decorative purposes or for items like keys, jewelry, or candles. If used for food, consider a liner.
How should I clean the plate?
Clean with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately and thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Will the finish wear off?
The plate has a matte finish treated with raw oils. With proper care, the finish should remain intact. Avoid abrasive cleaning to preserve it.
Can I use this plate outdoors?
This plate is designed for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements may cause discoloration or rust.
Is each plate identical?
No, due to the hand-hammered process, each plate has unique variations in its texture and shape, making every piece one-of-a-kind.
What are the dimensions of the small plate?
Specific dimensions are not provided in the product information, but it is designed to be a small display plate.
Troubleshooting
Plate has an uneven finish.
This is a normal characteristic of the hand-hammered process and contributes to the unique, rustic aesthetic of the product.
A slight discoloration or water spot appears.
Wipe gently with a damp cloth and dry immediately and thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth to remove the mark and prevent further spotting.
The plate feels rough in places.
The hand-hammered texture naturally creates variations in smoothness. This is an intentional part of its artisanal design. Avoid using abrasive materials for cleaning.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the plate's finish and integrity:

- Drying: Immediately after dampening, dry the plate thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth to prevent water spots or potential rust.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or strong detergents.
- Handle with Care: While made of iron, the hand-hammered surface can be delicate. Avoid dropping the plate or placing extremely heavy objects on it that could cause deformation.
