Oval Platter
An oval platter is a decorative serving dish that is traditionally used for special occasions or gatherings. These oval platters are typically made of ceramic, porcelain, or glass and come in a variety of sizes and designs. It is possible to find oval platters in a range of colors and styles, including classic white, metallic accents, or intricate hand-painted designs. Here are some great options.
Oval Platter
When selecting an oval platter, consider both the material and the overall aesthetic to best suit your needs. Ceramic and stoneware options are favored for their durability and ability to retain heat, keeping dishes warm throughout your meal. Porcelain offers a refined, classic look, while glass and melamine bring a touch of contemporary flair and are often lighter for easy handling. Many oval platters are designed to be oven-safe, allowing you to finish dishes under the broiler or keep them warm until serving time. Dishwasher-safe and microwave-safe features also add convenience, especially when entertaining a crowd. For those who love to entertain, a sur la table serving platter is a thoughtful choice, ideal for family-style meals or as a versatile gift for newlyweds, housewarmings, or anyone who enjoys gathering around the table. The oval shape is particularly versatile, accommodating everything from a Thanksgiving turkey to a simple cheese and fruit arrangement for a cozy evening in.
Oval platters are more than just serving pieces—they become part of your hosting tradition, carrying memories of shared meals and celebrations. Their generous size and graceful curves make them a staple for both formal and casual settings, and they pair beautifully with a range of tableware styles, from rustic farmhouse to modern minimalism. As you curate your collection, consider mixing and matching textures and finishes to add depth and interest to your table. Whether you’re drawn to the earthy tones of a hand-glazed stoneware piece or the crisp, clean lines of a porcelain oval platter, investing in quality serveware ensures you’ll always have the right piece on hand for any occasion. For even more inspiration and a wider selection of shapes and sizes, explore our full collection of Oval Serveware to find the perfect match for your entertaining style.
