Know before you buy
This salad plate measures 8 inches in diameter, making it ideal for salads, appetizers, or small desserts.
While Denby stoneware is known for its durability, these vintage pieces should be handled with care. We recommend hand washing to preserve the integrity of the floral pattern and prevent potential chipping over time.
While Denby stoneware is generally robust, vintage pieces from 1981 may have developed micro-fissures or glaze wear over the decades. To ensure the longevity of the piece, we advise against using it in the microwave or dishwasher.
Authentic pieces from this era typically feature the manufacturer's backstamp on the underside. You can verify the origin by checking for the Denby or Langley Pottery mark, which confirms its production history.
Absolutely. The blue and yellow floral motif works well as an accent piece to add a vintage, eclectic touch to a contemporary white or neutral dinnerware set.
