17-Inch Oval Thanksgiving Platter, Ivory

Turkey carving calls for a wide dish that holds its own in the middle of a full holiday table. This oval platter is shaped in classic majolica style from solid ceramic, finished in warm ivory with a molded tom turkey in raised relief. It warms in the microwave and cleans right up in the dishwasher.

Raised turkey pattern

The center shows a proud tom turkey surrounded by detailed border trim. Because the color is a soft, solid ivory, it matches the china she already uses for family meals.

Sturdy ceramic build

Thick ceramic keeps the meat warm while the gravy goes around. It has the solid heft you want when carrying a heavy roast from the oven to the dining room.

Microwave and dishwasher ready

You can warm the carved slices right before the blessing without dirtying another pan. When the meal is over, it goes straight into the dishwasher with the rest of the supper dishes.

Generous oval shape

The wide rim keeps juices from spilling onto the tablecloth. Miles Kimball carries this piece for fall gatherings, potlucks, and the big Thanksgiving dinner.
