The design is simply lovely with a free form organic shape, textured ice finish on the bottom, three of the clouds are raised on the bottom and serve as tripod elevation feet, from the top the feet appear to form an abstract heart in the center. And while it's beautiful, it's also functional. It's very heavy and with a proper stand can by displayed as art glass to catch the light, but it's designed to be used as a platter. Whether you choose cheese, charcuterie, veggies, canapés, cakes, pie, even roasted chicken, this platter will help you serve in style.
