These charger plates are super easy to use. Just place them on your dinner table to add a touch of elegance to your meals. For cleaning, simply hold them under hot running water. Do not put them in the microwave or dishwasher as they are not designed for that. When not in use, store them in a dry place to keep them in good condition. They're perfect for formal events like receptions and banquets, and they pair beautifully with our placemats.
