This set of six 9-inch Duralex glass soup plates is named after the Lys River which traverses through France and Belgium. The Lys Soup Plate by Duralex is symbolic of what this wonderful tributary used to represent to some of France's most famed artists: clarity, simplicity, utility, and of course, beauty. The Soup Plate is part of the Lys Dinnerware Set and is especially suited and sized for large, evening meals. Duralex plates are formed from tempered glass, equally suitable for both hot and cold foods, and are dishwasher and microwave safe. Made in France.
