This serving dish is tremendous. The color perks up my house bound soul and it's uses are too many to practically list. Chicken platter, huge salad holder, a bakery basket for the whole crew, serving tray for assorted hors d'oeuvres, a display for a load of shrimp, lobster, clams all in a beautiful sunrise. Very useful and tough. I dropped it and it was fine. This was a great addition to our hosting repertoire! Enjoy!
