Only the 12 inch plate is for sale here. After I purchased these four bowls/chargers from an auction (see last 3 photos), I discovered a piece of paper in with the trash that was used as cushioning that described at least some of these bowls. I spent a lot of time, trying to figure out which description applied to which of the four bowls. The only one I’m pretty sure about is that the bottom description is talking about the red 14 inch bowl, because they included a measurement.

I included a photo of all for plates. Please read the notes for yourself and do your own comparisons to the photos, auction notes, and other online research.

MY GUARANTEE IS THAT I WILL BE HONEST ABOUT MY ITEMS AND FAIR WITH MY PRICING.

There are three steps involved in pricing for me.

1. Use an app called Google Lens to take a photo of any item. It will bring up similar items and how much they sell/sold for. This is also helpful in figuring out what to call or how to describe the item.

2. Do a Google search for the name of the item.

3. Do a search for the item by name on Chairish and another similar site.

Since I am being fair with my pricing I want you to know these steps. It will only help me by validating my pricing choices, and I hope it will help you to recognize items that are overpriced.

Feel free to ask me any questions and make an offer.

Thank you!
