Make room for seconds.

In Italy, this style of piatto fondo (deep plate) was found in countryside homes and used for every course since the 1800s. Today, you’ll still find this kind of plate in every Italian kitchen. This collection is affectionately known as A Pranzo dalla Nonna – “Lunch at Nonna’s” – because that’s exactly how your grandmother would dish out multiple servings of fresh handmade pasta during a big Sunday lunch.

 

And now you can create your own custom phrase! We’ve had many customers ask us for specific phrases, so we’re pleased to be able to offer this personalization for a limited time.

 

Final sale – we do not offer refunds or exchanges on custom products.

Description

Materials

Enamelware with hand-painted phrases.

Care Instructions

These dishes can get hot! Handle with care when serving your soups or pasta in brodo. To keep your dishes in good shape, hand wash in cold water with a non-abrasive sponge and gentle dish detergent. Note: the hand-painted phrases are heat-treated but not glazed. Abrasive sponges and sharp knives will scratch the hand-painted decoration. To protect the hand-painted designs, dishwasher cleaning is also not recommended. Nota bene: never put your enamel bowls in the microwave.

Nonnas vegano cucina bowl

I love it. I am afraid to wash it though. It looks like the paint will come off.

Custom pasta plates

I love these plates! I had a set made with the name of my beach house—evermore. I can’t stop reaching for them for salad, for one dish meals as well as for pasta. They just make me smile.

Italian Phrase Enamel Bowl

The bowls turned out JUST as I hoped! I surprised my girlfriend with two bowls for us with the phrase “Avere le mani in pasta” or “To have hands in pasta/dough”. Making pasta for us, together, fills my heart and my bowl.
