Mottahedeh Blue Canton Square Baking Dish

Brand: Mottahedeh

Color: Blue

Details: The most fashionable tables in the early American Republic were set with blue and white "Canton" ware, named for the great Chinese trading port from which it came. Recognized by the blue lattice border surrounding a variety of landscape scenes, this popular pattern inspired many European versions, most notably the English "Willow Ware." In America, Chinese blue and white porcelain was in demand well into the 19th century and has become part of the heritage of many American families. Blue Canton faithfully recaptures this centuries old tradition and taste. Material: Porcelain Care: Dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing for oversize and decorative pieces or pieces with gold or platinum decoration. Items with metallic decoration should not be microwaved. Made in Portugal.
