Description: These are vintage, authentic, RWP, Wilton ARMETALE®, polished, 6" Bread & Butter Plates in the "Plow Tavern" pattern, now discontinued. Marks on the bottom of each piece verify the authenticity. I'm offering 2 sets of 4 plates each. This is Set 1. The cost listed is for one set. Wilton ARMETALE®'s products are produced using an ancient process called sand molding, whereby a skilled craftsman fills an impression formed in sand with molten metal. When cast, this metal alloy can be worked to acquire the look of pewter or be highly polished to resemble silver. The intent is to impart the warmth and patina of fine pewter while offering practicality for daily use. Each item is individually cast and meticulously hand-finished so no two pieces are exactly alike. These functional yet beautiful pieces are also valued for their ability to retain temperatures for heating, chilling, and serving. The alloy (a closely-guarded family secret) is made of 10 different metals, primarily aluminum. It was created to meet FDA food service standards. (paraphrased from Wilton product information) The "Plough Tavern" series was designed as a Colonial American reproduction of dinnerware, serveware and hollowware, an ode to the Golden Plough Tavern of York PA. The tavern was built in the mid-1700s and was the original home of German Architect Martin Eichelbereger which later served the growing community of German and other immigrants who came to Colonial America. Care and Use. ARMETALE® can be used on the table or in the oven. Clean immediately after use. Do not leave fatty acids, vinegar, salad dressing, or the like on the surface for too long or it will discolor. Wash by hand with mild detergent.
