Michael Aram Heart Dish

Yes, it is safe for serving dry snacks like nuts or candies. However, because it is not dishwasher or microwave safe, you should avoid acidic or wet foods that could tarnish the metal finish over time.

To preserve the luster, hand wash the dish with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh cleaners, as these can scratch or dull the nickel-plated brass.

No, this piece is strictly decorative and for serving room-temperature or dry items. It is not oven, microwave, or dishwasher safe, and exposing it to high heat may damage the metal finish.

Given its heart shape and artisanal texture, it works beautifully as a catch-all for jewelry on a nightstand, a decorative accent on a coffee table, or a thoughtful gift for a loved one. Its metallic finish allows it to blend easily with both modern and traditional decor styles.

Like most high-quality metal decorative pieces, it can develop a patina if not cared for properly. Wiping it down after use and storing it in a dry environment will help maintain its original shine for years to come.
