These charger plates are really easy to use. Just place them on your table before serving a meal, and they'll instantly elevate the look of your table setting. When it comes to cleaning, simply rinse them under hot water. Avoid using a microwave or dishwasher as these plates are not designed for such use. To keep them in good condition, store them in a dry place away from sharp objects. They're great for formal events like receptions and banquets, and pair nicely with our placemats.
