The elegance of this Botanic Garden au gratin platter adds flair to function from the kitchen to the dining table on any occasion. The versatile cook-and-serve piece features convenient side handles for a lovely display of baked potato dishes and casseroles when serving guests. Inspired by 19th-century botanical illustrations, artist Susan Williams-Ellis designed this classic pattern of floral and butterfly imagery, which has enjoyed enduring popularity for decades. Bordered by the signature leaf motif, this classic oval bakeware flaunts a lovely pink Belladonna Lily, selected from an assortment of arrangements throughout the collection. Coordinate beautifully with matching dinnerware and an extensive range of accessories in the line. Crafted in high-quality, hand-decorated earthenware that's safe in the dishwasher, microwave, and oven up to 390 degrees F, though quick or extreme temperature changes should be avoided. This British import makes a wonderful gift. --Roberta Cruger
