These are such beautiful platters. They look beautiful with food on them or even sitting out on my hutch shelves when not in use Which ever way you use them they are truly stunning. They did take awhile to get to me, but glad I was patient for them.Also, I was very pleased when I received them. They were packed very well and in perfect condition and love the color (black) .Thank youThis was a good purchase but I wish the platters were larger. They seem more for individual servings rather than for larger ones. I wanted it for a party but I can’t but a lot on them.Just want I was looking for ~ similar to what I used to have but wear and tear it was time to get new one!The color is not even/not the same. It even looks like there’s permanent fingerprint marks on the plates.They are so unique and i'm glad i ordered them. couldn't be happier.Why would modern plates be sold unbranded eith no identifying marks at all? Perhaps so nobody can prove who the plates were made by when they turn out to be dangerous or toxic. We returned them immediately.Not dishwasher safe, at allThe website stated the color as “black “.In actuality they were silver gray.I returned them immediately.This is a nice set, our main porpuse is to use at the restaurant and after pordering a bulk i found out that after washing at the dishwasher, they are easy to get water and soap stained. Also, they get finger marks easily. they are okay to use at home but NOT recommended for restaurant use.great
