FAQs
What is the 'Ciao Mondo' collection?
The 'Ciao Mondo' collection is a series of decorative plates by Bitossi Home, each designed to represent a different city with unique stylized graphics and commemorative messages.
Can I use this plate for serving hot food?
While the porcelain is safe for food contact, it is not recommended for serving very hot food, and it is strictly not microwave-safe. It is best suited for cold or moderately warm dishes.
How many times can I wash this plate in the dishwasher?
The plate is dishwasher safe for a maximum of 250 washes. Beyond this, the decorative elements may degrade.
What are the dimensions of the plate?
The plate has a diameter of 15 cm.
Is the yellow color a solid print?
The yellow is part of the overall design, featuring a rhythmic stepped border and stylized graphics, not a solid color glaze.
What is the weight of the plate?
The plate weighs approximately 0.15 Kg.
Can this plate be used as a regular dinner plate?
This plate is primarily designed as a decorative item or a small accent plate for serving appetizers or desserts, rather than a primary dinner plate.
Troubleshooting
Plate seems dull after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent. If the dishwasher limit of 250 washes is approaching, consider handwashing for future cleaning to preserve the finish.
Gold accents appear faded.
This may indicate the plate has exceeded its recommended lifespan for dishwasher use or has been exposed to harsh cleaning agents. Handwashing is recommended for best preservation.
The plate feels fragile.
While made of porcelain, it is a decorative item. Handle with care, especially when placing or removing from shelves or dishwashers.
