Big enough for a feast. Slim enough to fit the shelf. Designed for generous meals without hogging the table—or storage—space, the Oval Platter holds a whole roast chicken with a pile of grilled vegetables or whatever’s anchoring your holiday spread. It’s wide and impressive, but thoughtfully narrow, made to tuck between other vessels on the table or buffet. Just as importantly, we shaped it to fit into most standard cabinets. Because a piece this useful shouldn’t be a pain to put away. Why we love it: • The perfect size for roasts, sides or showy desserts • Its narrow profile fits easily into most cupboards. • Makes an excellent centerpiece for a dinner party Details: • Dimensions: 18" x 11.5" x 1.5” • Weight: 4.4 lbs • Material: 100% Lead Free Stoneware • Our pottery is made by humans and reduction-fired in Asheville, North Carolina. Any differences in glaze applications and surfaces are there to embrace. Care: • Dishwasher and microwave safe • Avoid open flames or preheated ovens. Our pots are oven safe up to 350° but must start in a cool oven and be brought up to heat gradually (think crème brûlée). • Over time, your pots might accumulate mild cutlery marks. These can be buffed off with warm water and scouring powder such as Bar Keeper's Friend.

This Longleaf platter is truly big enough for a feast, as advertised. It holds a significant amount of food without appearing unwieldy. The smooth pottery cleans up easily, even after serving sticky glazes. I was pleasantly surprised by how well it fit into my shallow cabinet.
This oval platter in Black Mountain is incredibly well-made. The pottery feels substantial and high-quality, and the finish is smooth and even. It's amazing how much food it can hold while still being sleek enough to fit on a crowded buffet or tuck away easily in the cupboard. It’s perfect for everything from a casual BBQ to a formal dinner party, making it a truly versatile piece in my kitchen. The design is both elegant and practical.
The Blue Ridge color is absolutely stunning and really elevates the look of any meal. It's truly a great size for serving a main course. The only slight drawback is that it's a bit heavier than I expected, which can make it a little awkward to carry when full.
The platter arrived with a noticeable chip on the edge and some rough spots on the underside that felt like unglazed areas. While the size and concept are good for serving, the execution of this particular piece in Eggshell was lacking. For an item like this, I expected better quality control before it was shipped out. It's a shame, as the shape itself is very functional for fitting into storage.
This platter in Eggshell is great for serving a whole chicken or a side dish. It truly is wide enough for a good spread but still fits into my cabinet, which is a huge plus. My only minor complaint is that the glaze had a tiny imperfection on the rim, barely noticeable but there.
