Using these salad plates is a breeze. Just place your favorite salad, appetizer, or small dishes on them. They're great for daily meals or special occasions. When it comes to cleaning, you can either wash them by hand with mild dish soap and warm water or put them in the dishwasher. But be gentle with them to avoid any chips or scratches. Store them in a safe place, stacked with soft padding between each plate to protect the hand - painted finish. And if you're not satisfied, remember you have 30 days to return them.
