Spode Christmas Tree Open Vegetable Dish

This 11-1/2-inch open vegetable dish is ideal for serving mixed vegetables, potatoes, rice, or other dishes to complement your main dish during the holiday get-togethers. The dish is white with the pattern's calling-card Christmas tree design at center; the rim of the plate is kissed with alternating mistletoe and holly, and the edges, which form an octagon and are slightly scalloped, are circled in a rich green border, creating a simple and vibrant holiday look. Made in England of Imperialware, Spode's high-quality earthenware, the dish is safe for the oven, dishwasher, freezer, and microwave. Place in a cold oven and heat gradually up to 100 degrees C (about 200 degrees F); if using the dishwasher, contact Spode for a list of recommended detergents. The dish comes in a handsome gift box for easy gift-giving. --Jeff Dalto
