• Finish: Matte/Glossy
• Diameter: 26,5 x 2 cm

• With the hand-applied reactive glaze, two glazes react with each other, creating a unique color gradient. This makes every item one-of-a-kind.
• As this is a handmade natural product, small deviations in shape and color, as well as irregularities, are possible, which give the dinnerware its character.

So that you can enjoy your tableware for a long time, we recommend gentle wash cycles with standard dishwasher tablets. We advise against aggressive cleaners with citrus additives. Depending on the material of your cutlery, slight cutlery marks may occur. These can be easily removed with a cutlery cleaning product.

The Portofino Ceramica Bento Plate for your Slow Living Interior

While mass-produced goods with loveless designs and questionable origins are found in every corner of our everyday lives, our Bento Plate brings traditional craftsmanship with heart and soul into your home. This allows you to consciously enjoy every meal and bring a piece of slow living into your daily routine.

High Quality with Fair and Sustainable Production

Our plates are sustainably manufactured under fair conditions in Portugal and offer high-quality durability through their careful production process. The plates are first shaped and fired by hand. After the glaze is applied, it is hardened by firing again, making the plates robust and shock-resistant. This means you can easily put them in the dishwasher and microwave when you need something quickly. After the firing process, the quality of the goods is checked to ensure that every piece meets our high standards. The stoneware used comes from Europe, and the glazes are strictly tested according to EEC directives. Thus, you can be sure that only sustainably produced tableware lands on the table for your slow living home.

Care for a Long Lifespan

Because a sustainable lifestyle also means keeping possessions for a long time, we recommend the correct care for our Bento Plates. Use gentle washing cycles with standard dishwasher tablets and avoid aggressive cleaning agents with citrus additives to clean your plates as gently as possible. If cutlery marks appear, you can easily remove them with a cutlery care product. This way, your Bento Plates will retain their beautiful appearance for a long time and remain your loyal companions in the kitchen.

A Special Plate for a Special Home

It is not only the quality of our Bento Plates that makes them unique. We use our own designs for production because we want your four walls to be equipped with very special items. The higher price compared to cheap mass-produced goods is justified by the fact that our plates are shaped by hand. Thus, the individual pieces show slight irregularities and deviations in shape, which give them their own character and a touch of imperfection. Because naturalness always has its own small imperfections. If a plate breaks, or you want to expand your set, you can easily buy more Bento Plates from us. This is because our products usually remain in the assortment long-term so that your slow living interior can grow with you and your personality.
