tierra negra oblong ovenproof serving dish - medium - NEW!

£60.00 including postage & packaging

(For the time being, black dishes will be dispatched on Wednesdays for delivery on Thursdays, due to delivery driver shortages.)

These beautiful black dishes are made in Colombia from just clay and are therefore completely organic. No artificial chemicals of any description are used in their production. It requires amazing skill to mould these pieces by hand, especially the larger dishes and the ones with handles.

Please note that no two items are the same and variations in size and appearance will occur as each piece is hand crafted.

They can be used both in the oven and on the hob, over any direct source of heat such as gas, electric, Aga or ceramic (but not induction), under the grill or in a microwave and even an open fire. They retain their heat very well and therefore keep food hot for a long time. The attractive black satin finish makes them ideal for serving food from cooker to table.

Completely dishwasher-proof and very easy to clean by hand, having a natural non-stick quality, they're surprisingly lightweight.

All in all they're just brilliant and enhance the look of most food. They're particularly well suited to gratins, shepherd's & fish pies and I use them for serving vegetables, which look wonderful against the rich black colour.  I use at least one just about every single day. 

These come in so many different shapes and sizes, with handles and without.  Please enquire by email or telephone if you would like a size or shape that is not shown here.
