Expressive botanical forms and earthy colour bring a playful, artistic character to the Dora Dinner Plate by Broste Copenhagen. Crafted from off-white stoneware, each plate is hand-painted with abstract floral motifs in Dusty Blue and muted Agave Green, creating an organic contrast against its pale background. The gently curved profile and generous proportions balance the bold pattern, while subtle variations in the hand-applied finish give each piece its own individuality. Equally at home in a relaxed Scandinavian tablescape or displayed as a decorative wall plate, Dora brings a considered sense of colour and personality to everyday dining.

FAQs
Are the Dora Dinner Plates dishwasher and microwave safe?
Yes. The plates are dishwasher safe at temperatures up to 65°C and microwave safe at a maximum of 675W. Stoneware can become hot during use, so handle heated plates carefully.
Will the hand-painted patterns vary between plates?
Yes. Each plate is finished by hand, meaning slight variations in the placement and appearance of the botanical motifs are part of its individual character.
How durable is the stoneware, and will it develop marks over time?
Stoneware is suitable for everyday dining, although cutlery marks and small surface scratches may develop with regular use. These are normal characteristics of ceramic tableware and do not necessarily indicate a manufacturing fault.
