The remarkable "Cristobal" dinnerware was imagined by the well-known designer and interior decorator, Alberto Pinto for Raynaud. He cleverly combined a plain white background with the brilliant colour and eccentric shape of coral, accentuating the overall effect with a fine gold finish. The originality of the design lies in the subtle decoration of the single pieces. Each of them has its own history and aesthetic personality.
The emerald green color, which complements the original coral red collection ("Cristobal Coral") and the ultramarine blue version ("Cristobal Marine"), plunges un into the abyss and the mysterious sea pits. It is sometimes dense and deep on the coral handles of the cups or on the knobs of the teapots, sometimes soft, contrasting, nuanced and watercoloured on the plates decorated with coral motifs in harmonious shapes. Displayed in small touches on the table or staged in an opulent way, Cristobal composes, builds and invents infinitely with the elegance and generosity that characterize the talented decorator.

Cleaning:
Clean your porcelain by hand using a soft sponge and mild dishwashing liquid. However, be careful not to use the abrasive side, as it may damage the surface of the decorations, especially gold or platinum.
Your porcelain is also perfectly safe for the dishwasher. Choose a low-temperature cycle and do not exceed the recommended amount of detergent. If you do not wash the porcelain immediately (by hand or in the dishwasher), we recommend rinsing it with warm water. Make sure that the pieces do not touch each other in the dishwasher and allow the steam to escape after the program has finished.
Avoid temperature shocks. To avoid friction when stacking, we recommend using intermediate layers (e.g. "Artedona" plate dividers).
Microwave:
Pieces without gold or platinum decoration: microwave safe.
Pieces with gold or platinum decoration: not suitable for microwave use due to high precious metal content.
