Pasabahce Timeless Boat Plate — 30 x 18 cm Serving Plate

pasabahce timeless boat plate — 30 x 18 cm oval serving plate

The boat plate — an elongated oval serving plate — is the format for long presentations: a whole fish, a row of stuffed vegetables, a spread of grilled items arranged lengthwise, or any serving occasion where the food benefits from a wider, flatter surface than a standard round plate allows. At 30 x 18 cm, the Timeless boat plate is a generous serving size that works as both a personal plate and a shared serving dish.

The Timeless collection from Pasabahce is their clean-lined glass line — the same design that works in 1985 and in 2025 because the form is simply correct. A versatile glass serving piece for any table.

Why We Selected This Piece

At Rootsware, we carry serving pieces because the Turkish and Middle Eastern table tradition is not just about the food — it is about how the food arrives. The tray that carries the tea service, the platter that presents the sweets, the footed stand that elevates the baklava: these are not accessories but the infrastructure of hospitality. We selected pieces that fit the actual serving formats of diaspora households — the right sizes for a 6-person tea service, the right platters for a proper mezze spread.

Care & Cleaning

• For metal trays and platters: wipe with a damp cloth. Mild soap for stubborn residue. Dry immediately to prevent water spotting on polished surfaces.
• For glass trays: hand-wash with mild soap and warm water. Do not use abrasive scrubbers on decorative glass surfaces — they scratch the print.
• For mirrored surfaces: clean with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid ammonia-based glass cleaners which can damage the mirror backing over time.
• For metal with gold or silver finish: polish occasionally with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive metal polishes on plated finishes.
• Store flat or upright — do not stack heavy items on top of glass pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the glass trays food safe?
Yes. The decorative glass trays are food safe — the print is on the underside of the glass and does not come into contact with food. The surface in contact with food is clear glass.

What size tray do I need for a 6-person tea service?
A round tray of 13–14 inches accommodates 6 tea glasses, a sugar bowl, and a small plate of sweets comfortably. Rectangular trays of 15–16 inches work well for passing service at the table.

Can I use the footed platters for hot food?
The mirrored and glass footed platters are for cold or room-temperature presentation — sweets, pastries, fruit. They are not designed for hot dishes directly from the oven.

Are these suitable for outdoor use?
Metal trays and platters are fine outdoors. Glass trays should be kept away from direct strong sunlight for extended periods, which can affect decorative finishes over time.

Do the serving pieces come as matched sets?
Some items in this collection are available as individual pieces, others as sets. For a coordinated table, browse the full serveware collection — multiple items share the same design family.
