Caja Company hand-paints each mussel motif around the edge of this ceramic platter. The multicolored mussels are painted directly onto the ceramic, so each platter varies slightly in appearance. The platter is made in Spain, where Caja Company has specialized in hand-decorated ceramics since the 1990s. The 33 cm diameter provides space for 500-600 grams of shrimp or a portion of steamed mussels for 3-4 people.
Care and maintenance
Hand washing is recommended to preserve the hand-painted mussel motifs. Avoid the dishwasher, as high heat and strong detergents can fade the colors over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between ceramic and porcelain serving platters?
Ceramic is fired at a lower temperature than porcelain, resulting in a more porous surface ideal for hand painting. Porcelain is denser and more translucent, but ceramic retains the vibrant colors of hand-painted motifs like the mussels on this platter better.
Can the seafood platter withstand hot dishes straight from the oven?
No, this ceramic platter is designed for serving at room temperature or chilled. Serve steamed or boiled seafood once cooled to eating temperature. The platter is not suitable for oven use or very hot dishes straight from the stove.
How do I remove fish and seafood odors from the ceramic platter?
Wash the platter by hand with dish soap and lukewarm water immediately after use. For persistent odors, rub the platter with half a lemon and let it sit for 10-15 minutes before rinsing. Avoid letting seafood residues dry and stick.
Is a hand-painted seafood platter a good hostess gift?
Yes, especially for hosts who enjoy summer parties or seafood gatherings. It’s a practical gift with a personal touch, as each platter is hand-painted and therefore unique. The gift suits both experienced cooks and those who love to serve beautifully.
Do the mussel motifs vary from platter to platter?
Yes, since the mussels are hand-painted, there will be small variations in brush strokes, color intensity, and placement. This is part of the charm of handmade ceramics from Caja Company — your platter is unique.

Handmade & unique product
Most of my products are handmade or hand-painted. This means that there may be variations in color, finish, and minor imperfections. These variations are a natural part of the handmade look and make each product unique. Minor differences are therefore not considered defects.
