Know before you buy
Yes, these are functional accent plates suitable for serving appetizers, desserts, or small bites. However, because they are crafted from fine crystal, they should be handled with care to avoid chipping or scratching.
To maintain the clarity and brilliance of the crystal, we recommend hand washing these plates in warm, soapy water. Avoid using a dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can cause clouding or damage to the delicate etched design.
No, these plates are not microwave or oven safe. Crystal is sensitive to rapid temperature changes and can crack or shatter if exposed to high heat.
Authentic Waterford pieces typically feature the brand's acid-etched signature or hallmark, usually found on the underside or rim of the plate. When purchasing secondary market items, look for this mark and inspect the quality of the etching, which should be crisp and precise.
While they are durable enough for occasional dining, their status as a discontinued collector's item makes them better suited for special occasions or decorative display. Their 8-inch size makes them ideal for showcasing the intricate Celtic Knot pattern on a stand or as part of a formal table setting.
