Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com Review Harkening back to the Renaissance, Villeroy & Boch's Cellini design celebrates the renowned artist from that era, Benvenuto Cellini. Crafted from creamy white porcelain, each piece encompasses a design sculpted in low-relief with a classical grace and elegance. Subtle columns, delicate leaves, and other regal decorations cover the pristine white on white pattern. The understated design allows for everyday use, however, the classical elements add a unique quality to the most formal occassions. This 6-1/4- by 8-1/2-inch oval dish doubles as a pickle or hors d'oeuvre server, as well as a gravy stand for the matching gravy boat. A recessed serving area ensures that appetizers stay in place and the gravy boat rests evenly on the surface. The faintly sculpted, pure white on white design, adds a lovely elegance to the table. Crafted from vitrified porcelain for added strength and durability, this dish can safely be placed in the dishwasher and microwave. --Lea Werbel
