Editorial Reviews:
Product Description Designed by Susan Williams-Ellis in 1972, Botanic Garden is a ground-breaking pattern - over thirty different flowers adorn the collection.Each size of plate and cup is produced in a variety of different flowers and the whole mix and match pattern is unified by the unique style of drawing, the flitting butterflies and the distinctive leaf border. Botanic Garden has become one of the world's best selling tableware designs and is constantly changing with new motifs and products regularly added to the range.Since Portmeirion's tableware range is "Oven-to-Tableware", it can also be used for cooking. However, this pottery has been designed to perform perfectly satisfactorily at the lower range of temperatures normally used when cooking and should not be used at oven temperatures of over 170??C (340??F / UK Gas Mark 3).
Amazon.com Review Portmeirion does it again with these impeccably beautiful and highly functional mini dishes. Part of the Sovereign shape collection, the little 4-1/2-inch bowls can be used for anything from setting out sweets in the main room to holding a bar of soap in the bathroom or kitchen. Introduced in 2003, the Sovereign design is a unique addition to Portmeirion's Botanic Garden pattern, employing wide, rolled rims to accent each piece. The entire mix and match pattern shares a consistent style of floral drawings, featuring flitting butterflies and distinctive leaf borders. Available flower motifs include Daisy, Cyclamen, Speedwell, Milkwort, Rhododendron and Forget-Me-Not. Crafted from dense, high-fired, white earthenware that is resistant to chipping and breaking, the mini dishes are oven oven-safe to 340 degrees F, as well as microwave-, dishwasher- and freezer-safe. In short, they are designed for day-to-day use. To best maintain the set, dishwasher temperatures should not exceed 149 degrees F. Portmeirion guarantees its ceramicware for a lifetime and has a policy of always replacing faulty items as well as unsatisfactory items. Betsy Herring Editor's Note: Motifs in each set of two may vary.

It's too smaller than I expected. February 23, 2008 Y. Kwon It looks pretty and sturdy but I don't know for what to use it. It's too small to do something.
