It is made to withstand everyday basic catering and can also be used as a commercial hotel collection or at the grand buffet of a wedding. Porcelain is harder and more durable than stoneware or earthenware. The water porosity is close to 0 percent while in stoneware it could be as much as 2%. The Greater the water porosity the greater the possibility of moisture retention in dinnerware and hence lesser the durability. Stoneware is vitrified at approx. 40% lower temperatures compared to Porcelain.
Embossed with an authentic basket pattern from 19th century, Nantucket Weave is a true classic. Complementing both casual and formal table settings, the versatile dinnerware is great for a wedding, birthday or as a Christmas gift. Nantucket Weave makes a great commercial product safe for cutting on with knives and keeping the food surface non-absorbent. It has close to 0-percent water porosity that keeps products strong and break resistant.
