Frequently Asked Questions

What is a charger plate actually for?

It sits under the dinner plate as a decorative base through a formal meal and is removed before dessert. It frames the plate and protects the tablecloth - food does not go directly on it at a Western formal setting.

Can I serve food directly on it?

In Indian homes many people use a deep charger as a thali-style serving plate, and the 13 inch depth suits that. Use a liner for very oily or acidic dishes, and wash it promptly afterwards.

Silver or golden - which should I choose?

Gold suits warm table settings with wooden furniture and festive linen; silver works with cooler, more modern settings and white crockery. For weddings, gold is the more common pick.

How do I keep the steel looking new?

Hand wash in warm water with mild dish soap and dry immediately with a soft cloth - water left to dry is what causes the spotting you see on neglected steel. Avoid steel wool and scouring powder, which leave permanent scratches on a polished finish.

Does it work as a gift?

Serveware is among the more reliable Diwali, griha pravesh and wedding gifts - nothing to size, and it gets used rather than stored away.
