At $99.95, it's a premium price for serveware, but the hand-applied design, heavy-gauge construction, and collector appeal justify the investment.
What it is
A 16" enamel serving platter with hand-applied purple-and-white violet check design, enameled steel construction, and a bronzed stainless-steel rim—equal parts functional serveware and tabletop statement piece.

Pretty enough to live on your shelf, practical enough to earn its counter space.
This isn't just a platter—it's a MacKenzie-Childs gateway drug that makes every gathering feel intentional.
The Violet Check is the brand's signature color-dragged pattern, applied by hand to heavy-gauge steel, and it reads as both whimsical and refined.
What we looked at
- 01Design & Durability 16" diameter, enameled steel with bronzed stainless-steel rim
The enamel finish and heavy-gauge steel underbody mean this handles regular use without showing wear. The violet check pattern is hand-applied, so each platter carries a hint of artisanal variation—no two are identical. The rim adds a polished edge that elevates it beyond casual dinnerware.
- 02Entertaining Versatility Designed for desserts, appetizers, cheese, and fruit
At 16 inches, it's spacious enough for a full charcuterie spread or a tiered tower of pastries, yet still manageable to pass around. The pattern pops against both neutral and colorful table settings, making it work year-round and occasion to occasion.
- 03Collection Potential MacKenzie-Childs serving and home décor pieces
This platter is a natural anchor for expanding into mixing bowls, appetizer plates, or accent pieces. Collectors often cite the joy of building a coordinated look across their kitchen and table—this is how collections begin.
