Keep a low profile.
Who says a cake stand needs to be tall? This beaut cuts quite a pretty profile if we do say so ourselves, especially with that subtle—and very swoon-worthy—green tint. Oh, and get this: It’s handblown by a cooperative of artisans in Guatemala using nothing but recycled glass bits. Now, that’s something worth celebrating (good thing we’ve got this plate on standby).

Sobremesa
Chicago, IL
Sobremesa (which means “over the table”) refers to the Spaniards’ tradition of lingering after a meal to savor company and conversation—and we think Sobremesa’s goods will encourage exactly that. Every piece has a story to tell, since it’s all crafted by artisans from around the world using sustainable materials and centuries-old techniques.

My Perfect Serving Plate
I have been forever looking for a flat plate that is raised just a little bit. This plate is perfect. I don't have the room to store a pedestal cake plate to use occasionally. I can use it for cookies, cupcakes, cakes, cheeses etc. Best of all, it is made of recycled glass!
It’s okay
Looks much nicer in the picture - cake plate is slightly off center and color does not seem as vibrant as pictured. It’s just okay.
Wonderful
These glasses feel wonderful in your hand , go with any tablescape and take a minimal amount of space for many glasses.
