This was an order of a 6 plate set. One plate arrived broken. Amazon refused to either replace the plate or give me a refund for that one plate. They suggested instead that they would pay for the entire set to be returned, and give me a refund for the entire set. Since even with 1 plate broken, the set was still a very good price, I decided to keep the remaining 5 plates, although I would have preferred a refund for that one broken plate or a substitute.

I received the plates broken. Although I had read this in previous reviews, I thought SURELY that they would revisit their method of packing after continually receiving them back!!! They have obviously chosen to ignore this problem, however!

I had already received other pieces of this pattern and only needed the dinner plates. I received them exactly as ordered and they meet my every expectation. They don’t scratch when used, are dishwasher and microwave safe. The patterns were all different and are perfect with my other pieces.

I saw this dinnerware at a friends home and had to get a set. It is very sophisticated, but study and works great as an everyday set. The condition and quality are first rate. These are made in Britain (not like some I’ve read reviews, which say they can come from China. These plates have some heft to them, too!! The price was very competitive. Bon appetit!!

Portmeirion Botanic Garden Dinner plates:
The newest made series of botanic garden plates (as well as other pieces) are heavier and have a more clear and pronounced graphics which I feel is an improvement over older series of this type. Collectors will find that the new floral graphics will clash with those of the older type only if you look very closely. However, the maker’s mark on the back of the pieces has changed dramatically, and does give the impression that the newer plates and pieces are being produced by another manufacturer.
