Product Description
This item is sold in sets of 6. Ramekins are 5 ounce stacking. Set of six. Includes one each of the following motifs: Speedwell, Pimpernel, Rhododendron, Yellow Jasmine, Heartsease, Forget-Me-Not. Designed by Susan Williams-Ellis, Botanic Garden is a stupendous and innovative pattern. The famous Botanic Garden pattern was inspired by an antique horticulture book. About thirty different flowers are strewn across the collection. The whole mix and match pattern is unified by the style of drawing, the flitting of butterflies and the distinctive leaf borders. Portmeirion bakeware/ovenware is made from a strong, white stoneware which is resistant to temperature changes and is ovenproof to 200 degrees Celcius/390 degrees Farenheit. This ware is microwave, disherwasher and freezer safe. The ovenware is distinguished by a ribbed, unglazed finish on the bottom, which makes it less slippery. Because the stoneware is quite solid and non-porous, the bottom will clean easily with cleaner or non-metallic scourer. Made for day-to-day use.

We’ve been collecting Botanic Garden by Portmeirion for a little over a year now. We chose this product line because the majority of the pieces are made in Britain. We are also very careful to avoid those pieces in the collection that are made in China. Rest assured, these ramekins have "Made in Britain" printed clearly on the bottom and they are a great addition to the set! We use them for traditional purposes, but also to hold au jus, serve dips and other sauces. They’re great!

I adore the Portmeirion Botanic Garden line. I find these little ramekins extremely useful. I fill them with sauces or other condiments and put them on the plate as an accompaniment to the meal. I also use them for berries or ice cream. You can put salt and pepper in them or use them as prep dishes when preparing a meal. They can certainly be used the traditional way for custards, but they are too pretty to save just for that.
