The melamine serving piece is part of Beatriz Ball's collaboration with ceramicist Gretchen Murchison, bringing a sculptural approach to food served indoors and outside. Its 18-by-12-inch format suits vegetables, appetizers or a generous arrangement of smaller portions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“An oval platter is particularly agreeable to me on a narrow table.

Presoak dried food in warm water so it lifts without hard scrubbing; avoid abrasive pads and cleaners. Do not use in an oven or microwave. Dry before stacking, and place pieces gently together to protect the modeled rims.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaker \/ Heritage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCuban-born designer Beatriz Ball began working with metal artisans outside Mexico City in 1991. Her signature metalware is still made one piece at a time in the brand’s own foundry in Mexico: sand casting gives the forms their character, and successive hand-polishing stages bring out the alloy’s silvery luster. More than twelve pairs of hands take part in the making. The appeal is that combination of expressive shape and useful purpose, with the warmth of handwork and none of silver’s routine tarnish polishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBloom grew from Ball’s collaboration with Louisiana ceramicist Gretchen Murchison. Its rippling, petal-like outlines bring the movement of a ceramic form to practical serving pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beatriz Ball","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53924477206803,"sku":"2507","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/3244\/9099\/files\/2507_1.jpg?v=1772999942","url":"https:\/\/www.themayfairhall.com\/products\/vida-bloom-white-melamine-oval-serving-platter-by-beatriz-ball-large","provider":"The Mayfair Hall","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
