Made of earthenware in Portugal using traditional ceramic manufacturing techniques, the jug is microwave and dishwasher safe for everyday use. From cabbage leaf serving dishes to bowls shaped like melons or plates like strawberries, Bordallo Pinheiro's plant-inspired ceramics are a feast for the senses. Still produced in the same factory in Caldas da Rainha in Portugal, where artist Rafael Bordallo Pinheiro first designed them back in the 1800s, these leafy beauties never date. Pick one or two pieces or go all out. Mix in with bright, zingy ceramics for Mediterranean flavour or add to your everyday white china for a classy green and white combo.Choose the perfect china All our china is made from clay and kiln-fired for durability.
