Flare Ridged Saucer: 5 Unexpected Uses

Quick answer

The Flare Ridged saucer works beautifully as a dessert plate, jewelry catchall, bar coaster, soap dish, or small serving tray—its scalloped rim and bone china finish suit many spots beyond a coffee cup.

Diagnosis: Which use fits your situation?

• Symptom: You have a Flare Ridged saucer but rarely serve tea or coffee.
• Likely cause: The saucer's size and shape are ideal for small servings or dry items, but you haven't considered alternatives.
• Corrective action: Try it as a dessert plate for cookies or pastries, a ring or key dish near the door, a coaster for wine or cocktail glasses, a soap dish in the guest bath, or a small tray for olives or nuts. For wet or sticky foods, wipe immediately and hand wash to protect the bone china finish.
• Stop / choose another option: If you need a microwave-safe plate, ovenproof dish, or dishwasher-safe item, this saucer is not the right choice—it is hand-wash only and not designed for high heat.
