OceanScape Ceramic Dinner Set, 12-Piece

Twelve pieces of ceramic for four people, double-fired at 2350°F for thirteen hours.

That firing schedule is the specification worth understanding. A second firing at high temperature vitrifies the body further, which is what makes a ceramic plate chip resistant rather than merely hard — and chipping at the rim is how a dinner set actually dies.

The clay is stated free of lead and cadmium, the two metals that historically turned up in coloured glazes and the reason older decorated china is not recommended for daily food use.

Twelve pieces is three per place — dinner plate, side plate and bowl. That covers a seated meal; pair it with mugs bought separately if you want the same set to cover breakfast.

• Double fired at 2350°F: why it resists chipping, not just scratching
• Lead and cadmium free: as stated by the maker
• Service for 4: 12 pieces, three per place
• Chipping is how a set dies: at the rim, where plates stack
• Degradable clay: the maker's stated body
• No mug included: pair with mugs separately
