Portmeirion 9-in. Botanic Garden Au Gratin Dish

Designed by Susan Williams-Ellis in 1972, Botanic Garden is a ground breaking pattern-over thirty different flowers adorn the collection. Each product is produced in a variety of different flowers and the whole mix and match pattern is unified by the unique style of drawing, the flitting butterflies and the distinctive leaf border. Botanic Garden has become one of the world's best selling tableware designs and is constantly changing with new motifs and products regularly added to the range. Portmeirion's range of cookware (bakeware) with its distinctive 'corduroy' base has been specially designed to enhance the cooking experience. Crafted from a unique vitreous (non-porous) ceramic body, the Portmeirion cookware range has an unrivalled combination of properties. These make it ideal for cooking a wide range of dishes including pies, roasts, quiches, baked puddings, cakes, curries, pasta, asian and mediterranean dishes.
