The Gravy Boat with Warming Base keeps your gravy hot and delicious for over 30 minutes. Simply pour hot gravy into the fine ceramic gravy boat, microwave the reheatable heating pad separately in the microwave, and then place the gravy boat on top of the heating pad at the table. The gravy boat will draw heat from the heating pad so your gravy will stay hot while you eat. A matching ceramic lid allows you to pour gravy while retaining the heat. Perfect for all types of gravy, salad dressing, broth, wine sauce, lemon sauce, maple syrup and more.
