Bernardaud Athena Soup Tureen

While Bernardaud porcelain is generally durable, the Athena Platine collection features delicate platinum detailing. We recommend hand washing with a soft sponge and mild detergent to preserve the integrity of the metallic finish over time.

No, this piece is not suitable for microwave or oven use. The platinum accents are metallic and will spark in a microwave, and extreme temperature fluctuations can damage the fine porcelain.

Yes, the lid is designed with a small cutout to accommodate a ladle, allowing you to keep the lid securely in place while serving to help maintain the temperature of your soup or stew.

Because of its delicate finish and craftsmanship, it is best stored in a climate-controlled cabinet. If stacking other items nearby, place a soft cloth or felt protector between the tureen and other pieces to prevent scratching.

The tureen is crafted with the balanced weight typical of high-end porcelain, providing stability when placed on a table. However, it is a decorative serving piece, so handle it with the care you would afford any fine china.
