Nambé Square 9-Inch Salad Plate Specifications

Nambé's square metal plate was the first Nambé item to be recognized by the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and is now in the museum's permanent collection. Designed by sculptor Richard K. Thomas, who also designed Nambé's iconic Butterfly and Tri-Corner bowls, the square plate is a true contemporary classic. With its rounded corners and slight rim, the nine-inch plate makes an excellent small serving platter for appetizers, and serves as an individual plate for a sandwich, side salad, or dessert. The durable metal is safe for chilling in a freezer or warming in an oven before use, and retains its temperature for quite some time. While the gleaming metal will not tarnish, chip, or crack, the plate may not be used in a microwave or dishwasher. Washing by hand preserves the mirror finish.

Nambé was founded in 1951 in a village of the same name in scenic northern New Mexico. From the beginning, the company focused on hand-producing high-quality, functional metal items such as bowls and trays with great attention to timeless, modern design. Still made in the USA, Nambé's signature metal alloy is liquefied, poured into a hand-made sand cast, and the resulting piece repeatedly polished and smoothed by hand. Exceptional gifts for the most special of occasions, Nambé metal bowls and accessories are now joined by porcelain and crystal pieces, each flawlessly crafted. Nambé ware has won numerous design awards, has been shown in or recognized by nearly two dozen museums worldwide, and is part of the permanent collections of many. --Ann Bieri
