SpodeBlue Italian Dinner Plates - Set of 4 (10.5 inch Dinner Plate)

Great pattern nd price

These dishes are beautiful. I wanted something deep blue and classic and these fit the bill perfectly. Lovely blue color and I can set them out with my pure white set of dishes and my blue and yellow farm-style set. They seem more delicate than they probably are- they aren't fine china but not clunky either. I am very happy with my purchase and may end up order another 4 plates, and some dessert dishes as well.

THE SPODE ITALIAN BLUE DINNER PLATES LOOK JUST BEAUTIFUL ON ANY TABLE. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE PLATES, AND PLAN TO USE THEM FOR OUR ANNUAL CHRISTMAS DINNER PARTY.

On a recent trip to the U.K., I became acquainted with Spode dinnerware. The owner of the B&B that we stayed at, used these plates on her table. I loved the pattern and thought it would be great to take some back as "souvenirs." I went to the store, where she purchased hers from, and when I saw the price decided that I'd pass on it. I hated the thought of paying that price, only to have them get broken in transit back to the U.S. By chance, I looked on Amazon and found the EXACT same plates, bowls and salad plates for a fraction of what I'd have paid in the U.K. They came perfectly packaged and have more place settings than I would have AND I paid less than I would have.

Added to my stack of dinner plates.

Carefully packed. No breakage!!

The dinner plates are thicker and the pattern is not correct because of the thickness. I will not purchase them again.

I ordered overseas and very pleased to see that the 4 plates were packaged in a properly sized hard box so they arrived intact. The plates are strong and durable so you won't be afraid to use them on a daily basis. The beautiful decoration of the plates make them ideal for displaying in my china cabinet as well, so they are both displayable and usable at the same time. And for such a beautiful product, it is reasonable priced also compared to other brands.
