The joy of sharing pizza meets the artistry of Portuguese ceramics in the Bordallo Pinheiro Tomate pizza plate. Designed for generous, convivial meals, this plate brings Mediterranean warmth straight to the table. Its round, wide shape, ideal for pizza, flatbreads, or tarts, frames every dish with the rich glow of tomato red. In the world of designer tableware, few pieces capture the spirit of casual elegance quite like this one: bold, cheerful, and unmistakably crafted by hand.
Functional Elegance for Everyday Dining
Created with modern living in mind, this plate balances style and practicality. It is suitable for microwave use and dishwasher safe, ensuring convenience while maintaining its artisanal charm. As with all Bordallo Pinheiro ceramics, it should not be used in the oven, as it is thermal shock non resistant. Durable yet delicate, it is designed to make dining an experience of texture, color, and care, a perfect blend of function and emotion that defines fine handmade ceramics.
A Celebration of Color and Form
The tomato motif ceramic plate is a tribute to the Mediterranean palette: vibrant red with subtle green accents that evoke freshness and appetite. Its glossy surface reflects light beautifully, enhancing the vivid hues of food and creating a dynamic presentation. The gentle curvature of the rim allows sauces and toppings to rest perfectly in place, while the generous size, available in 31 cm and 43 cm, makes it ideal for both single portions and shared dishes. Every meal served on this plate becomes a visual feast.
Handmade Heritage in Terracotta
Each hand painted dinnerware piece is meticulously shaped and glazed by artisans in Caldas da Rainha, Portugal, where Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro established his enduring legacy. The use of terracotta lends natural warmth, weight, and resilience, while subtle variations in glaze and tone give each plate its individual personality. This craftsmanship connects every piece to a lineage of artistry and humor, a hallmark of Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro ceramic art that continues to enchant generations of design lovers.
Designed for Modern Entertaining
The Bordallo Pinheiro Tomate pizza plate is more than a serving surface; it’s a statement of lifestyle. Whether you’re presenting homemade pizza, antipasti, or desserts, its terracotta serveware charm enhances any occasion. Pair it with neutral linens or mix it with bowls and jugs from other colorful Bordallo collections for a spirited, eclectic mise en place. This luxury Italian style plate transforms casual gatherings into sensory experiences, celebrating the Mediterranean art of sharing through timeless design and joyful craftsmanship.
