Description of Royal Doulton Noir Light Open VegetableProvence, a pattern based on the famous French Toile du Jouy fabric, named after the Manufacture Royale de Jouy, in a small town near Versailles, southwest of Paris. Royal Doulton, founded in 1815, is one of England's famed producers of fine bone china. They have established a reputation for incorporating modern sensibilities into designs inspired and informed by historical and natural imagery. Royal Doulton's Noir pattern borrows a turn-of-the-20th-century botanical motif--flowering and fruited branches of cherry, pear, pomegranate, and the like--and updates it with the use of a bold neutral palette in combinations of black, gray, white, and tan. Noir has several pattern variations, such as Plaid, Light, Dark, and Stripe, that can stand alone or can be integrated into mix-and-match settings with each of the other variations. The Noir Light 10-1/2-inch oval vegetable dish has gently sloping sides that showcase its floral border. (The Light variation of Noir means gray fruit against bone-white china; Dark is white fruit against a black background.) The rim is edged with Noir's thin signature basket-weave border, like a black cord wrapped with tan ribbon. It's a striking look, using traditional imagery in a modern color scheme. Other matching pieces in the Noir Light variation include a covered, double-handled vegetable dish, as well as coffee mugs, a teapot, a cream jug, and a sugar bowl. Royal Doulton's Noir pieces are safe for use in the microwave, oven, and freezer; however, avoid rapid freezer-to-oven temperature changes by allowing dishes to make gradual transitions. Noir dishes are also dishwasher safe; when hand washing, avoid abrasive cleansers and scourers. When stacking for storage, the best way to avoid scratches is to place a paper napkin between each bowl or plate. The Noir Light oval vegetable dish measures 8-1/2 by 10-1/2 inches and stands 2 inches tall. Royal Doulton guarantees that a chosen pattern will be available for two years after initial purchase. --Garland Withers
