Portmeirion 13x10.25-in. Botanic Garden Bread Crock

Designed by Susan Williams-Ellis in 1972, Botanic Garden is a ground-breaking pattern - over thirty different flowers adorn the collection. Each size of plate and cup 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. Since Portmeirion's tableware range is "Oven-to-Tableware", it can also be used for cooking. However, this pottery has been designed to perform perfectly satisfactorily at the lower range of temperatures normally used when cooking and should not be used at oven temperatures of over 170ºC (340ºF / UK Gas Mark 3).
