These gold glass charger plates are great for formal dining events like banquets and receptions. The set comes with 8 plates that pair well with our placemats. Before using them for the first time, make sure to hand wash each plate in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry with a lint - free cloth. To keep them looking their best, you can clean them with a 50/50 vinegar and water solution. Let it sit for a few hours, then rinse and dry. Remember, they are made overseas in large quantities, so there might be some dust, and you should clean them before use. Also, don't put them in the dishwasher or use them in microwaves or conventional ovens. This order only includes the charger plates, no other accessories.
