Certified International French Olives 4-Quart Oval Baker



Pretty, but seems slightly shady

Certified international French olives: What does "certified" mean? What does "international" mean? How does "French" have anything to do with this item? And lastly, is this really hand painted? The answers are: a company named Certified International had these made and painted by Chinese workers with a pattern called "French olives."

The item itself is pretty, and the fact that it’s dishwasher and microwave safe adds to its versatility. It seems like a decent quality item, so I have no real complaints there. However, I find the advertisement a bit misleading, and I was a little curious as to why it arrived without any documentation or its own box. In other words, most things come in printed boxes and a little pamphlet or something describing it. Though well-padded, the only thing in the package was the item itself. I learned from the Amazon page that you can’t bake this higher than 400 degrees F. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known that…

Gorgeous!

The colors in the bowl were exactly as depicted in the photo. The bowl is well made and very functional for many different types of dishes. I bought several bowls of the same line and I love each one. They can be used for everyday, but with the right table linens, they also look fantastic on my holiday tables.
