Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Royal Albert sandwich tray in pristine condition, avoid using it in the microwave, as the gold trim will cause sparking and damage the piece. Always wash the tray by hand using a mild detergent and a soft cloth; do not use abrasive sponges or scrubbers that could scratch the glaze or wear away the rose pattern. When storing, ensure the tray is not stacked directly under heavy items to prevent chipping or cracking. It is fully compatible with other pieces in the Royal Albert Old Country Roses collection, allowing you to create a cohesive table setting.
