This was a gift for my daughter-in-law and it is really quite lovely and she was very suprised and happy with it. She especially liked the fact that it had a lid.

This is an elegant French manufactured pedestal cake dish and dome. The various piece parts are in perfect proportion. There is a charming slight pinkish hue in the cake plate and pedestal (not mentioned in the product description). The dish has a scalloped edge. The dome has a small leaf design etched around the base and the dome is just the right weight, not too difficult to lift. Looks beautiful on the table, highly recommend.

The product arrived well-packaged and within a good time turn-around from placing the order. Currently there is only one other review (from 2005) and I relied on it (review) to make my decision to order. Now I will "second" what the first review states: Very well-made, clear glass dome with leaf etchings (very delicate and pretty) and the pedestal platter is a very beautiful pinkish color, almost like the color of the "Depression-Pink" glass...somewhere is a French person I should say "Thanks" too...for this item is actuallly hand-blown glass!! It comes with a nice little note recommending hand-washing and we could tell within moments it is not an item to just place in the dishwasher and forget..it's not that it isn't sturdy, it's perfectly proportioned and very pleasing to the eye, it's just not that "heavy-duty" glass many of us in the U.S. are used to (like Anchor-Hocking)...so if you would like a great conversation piece that is hand-crafted and beautiful, highly recommend.

I was a little disappointed with this purchase. The lid does not fit flush on the plate. And the "scalloped" edge is not done very well...my plate looks like the glass was cut in a circle without following the scalloping on the edge. I geuss it's okay, but not as pretty as the picture depicts. It's okay for the price I paid.

This cake plate is exquisite. It arrived in perfect condition, not lopsided as some of them can be and the etching is subtle and won't hide cakes or pastries. The price just made it sweeter.

While you can find more elegant and more expensive pedestals with covers, this one is very nice. My wife loves it.

I purchased the pink version of this cake stand and I love it, it's quite pretty and the vine etching on the dome is lovely. Last week I was surprised to see this cake plate without the dome on sale at TJMaxx. So I bought a spare as well as smaller version.

The vendor's online store has some nice gift items, so it is worth a visit. I will buy directly from them in the future.

This is a very nice glass cake pedestal. It's good for you or as a gift.
