Oven Safe Dinnerware: Bring Out Your Inner Chef

Some dishes are best served fresh out of the oven, like those you might enjoy at a fancy restaurant. Bring the restaurant experience into your home with the extensive collection of oven safe dinnerware available at Pottery Barn. Find a wide variety of oven safe dinner plates, soup bowls, appetizer plates, mugs and even serving platters from many different types of dinnerware sets.

These quality dinnerware sets have durable designs that can stand up to the high heat of the oven, allowing you to plate, finish and serve sizzling meals for your family and your guests. For example, you can pan-fry a protein for a nice sear, then transfer it to an oven safe plate to complete the cooking. Oven safe dishes are also great for keeping food warm until guests arrive. Plus, as the plates heat up along with the food, they will help keep it warm even after the meal is served.

Oven Safe Dinnerware Materials

What makes a piece of dinnerware safe to heat in the oven is the type of material it is made out of. Most of our oven safe dinnerware is crafted of glazed stoneware, giving it an earthy but refined appearance suitable to both casual meals and entertaining. Porcelain is another top choice for oven safe dinnerware, and its beautiful white finish has a timeless appeal perfect for formal dining. Always a tough material, enamel can stand up to just about anything. A porcelain coating makes it as pretty as it is practical.

Keep in mind that different dinnerware can vary in the oven temperature it is designed to withstand. Some dishes are oven safe only up to 300 degrees, while others can go as high as 500 degrees. When serving, you will also likely want to use trivets and placemats to protect your dining room table from the hot plates.

Quality dinnerware lets you test out your culinary skills and expand your hosting repertoire. Browse Pottery Barn to discover beautiful dinnerware that is safe to use in the oven and a fantastic choice for any number of dishes and occasions.
