Pampered Chef is top of the line in my opinion when it comes to kitchen gadgets and stoneware.  This is a beautiful ivory colored fluted 9" , deep dish pie plate.  As with all Pampered Chef stoneware, they are to be washed in warm water only, no soap.  I will ship by USPS Ground Advantage or Priority, both are suppose to be insured, but from experience, if there is any damage, since you will have the item, you need to take carton and contents to the post office for inspection or they will not honor any claim.  I'm happy to help with filing claim, but you will need to have inspection done.  I don't charge anything above actual shipping costs and I use ebay calculated shipping which is based on destination, dimensions and weight.  Feel free to contact me with any questions.
