Why? Because name brand products have high quality standards and stand behind what they sell; that includes “Made In”. So, if there is a defect, I can look to “Made In” to honor their warranty. Further, if I need an additional piece, to add or to replace in my growing collection, I can look to “Made In” to likely have what I want. Which brings us confidence in any “Made In” product, including this tableware (bread & butter plates).Depth?About ¼” to the rim from the plates inside area.Rise from table?About ½”, so sits low on the table.Bottom line:I am pleased with my selection. Although there are some non-glazed pin spots on the reverse of the bread & butter plates, I saw how the production of tableware takes place. The piece does not simply “float through the air” to and into the glazing and firing areas of production. Rather, the plate is suspended by some sort of pins, which leads me to believe any unglazed pin spots(beauty marks) are where the bread & butter plates touched while moving through the production process. When the product is prepared for packing, my understanding is that the worker looks at the top and then stacks with the bottom facing up, so there is opportunity to do a quality control check. If this were outside of tolerances, I am confident the piece would have been rejected.The use of the bread & butter plates, which are stackable, is only limited by my imagination. My toddler saw these bread & butter plates, and was amazed over their smooth texture and feel, and good looks and their thoughts suggested using these for traditional holiday meals... Yes, and something to pass onto the next generation, that’s how nice these bread & butter plates are. ;0)Weight of each bread & butter plateAbout 7¾ oz.Made from?Clay, locally harvested (also known as porcelain).Made where?Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, England. The pottery mark notes “Made in England.”Great for rolls – base for bowlsSmall finger sandwiches, snacks, appetizers too.The price is upper-mid level. But considering its location of manufacture, by a handmade type of process, classic old-world quality, this is a bargain, when considering the totality. I applaud those who started “Made In.”I hope my thoughts added information.
