Product Information
Full details
This Serax Dé plate, designed by Ann Demeulemeester, is for those who appreciate artistic and sophisticated tableware. Its key benefit lies in its unique, hand-painted 'dégradé' design that creates a play of light and shadow, allowing for versatile and artistic table settings. A potential caveat is that the hand-painted nature means each piece is unique, and variations in the black painting intensity are to be expected.

Are all the plates exactly the same?

Can I mix and match plates with different black painting variations?
Yes, the collection is designed to be mixed and matched. This allows for creative and personalized table settings, taking advantage of the interplay between different designs.
Is the plate suitable for everyday use?

What is the diameter of the plate?

Who designed the Dé collection?

How should I care for the hand-painted details?
While dishwasher safe, gentle handling and avoiding abrasive cleaners will help preserve the integrity of the hand-painted 'dégradé' over time.
Troubleshooting
Plate has a slight imperfection or variation in the painted edge.
This is expected due to the hand-painted nature of the 'dégradé' design. Each plate is unique, and these variations are part of its artisanal charm.
Color seems slightly different from online images.
Colors can vary slightly based on monitor settings and lighting conditions. The hand-painted variations also contribute to slight differences between individual pieces.
