Bordallo Pinheiro Centerpiece Leaves

Yes, this piece is food safe. While it makes a stunning decorative object, you can confidently use it to serve fruit, bread, or other dry goods.

Bordallo Pinheiro is known for high-quality earthenware, making this piece sturdy and functional. However, like all ceramic items, it should be handled with care to avoid chipping or cracking, especially given its delicate, leaf-like edges.

The centerpiece measures 406 mm in length, 404 mm in width, and 77 mm in height. It has a significant footprint, so ensure you have enough table or counter space to accommodate its width.

To preserve the vibrant finish and the integrity of the earthenware, we recommend hand washing with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh abrasives or putting it in the dishwasher, as this can dull the glaze over time.

Despite its organic, flowing silhouette, the base is designed to sit flat and stable on most surfaces. It is balanced well for its size, though it is best placed on a level surface to ensure it remains secure.
