See elsewhere on ebay one desisn of matching bowl to these plates.

“Designed in the UK, but nowadays probably manufactured elsewhere, these beautiful “tin” (in reality steel with an over-printed design) plates are ideal for your posh or not quite so posh picnics.  So whether your taste is Glyndebourne, Glastonbury or Henley, or the local beach or park these plates make fantastic re-usable and un-breakable picnic plates that are bound to set tongues wagging. Robust yet light and washable (if in a dishwasher on a gentle programme) and when the conversation flags can even be used as a Frisbee!

Alternatively if Al Fresco dining is not your biscuit then the plates are great for finger foods or simply as decoration. Until picked up, most people would not know these are not the original porcelain plates as used in some of the great British houses of centuries ago.”

All the plates are identically sized with a diameter of 10 inches/25.4 cms. The plates are not enamel as others might suggest. Mouseover small images for larger image. All designs are based on originals held in the UK in Museums, Art Galleries and Stately Homes.
