Gently used items, belonged to my mother-in-law. These were used for bridal and baby showers, birthday parties, and anytime there was a crowd of more people than there were "good" dishes! These were pre-cursors to paper plates, when paper plates were truly that -- they couldn't hold up to food, especially food with a sauce or gravy. Snack sets were a great alternative. They stack and store easily, and there is a place for the cup to fit in the tray for one-handed conversation. Also, these could be placed on one's lap with no need for a tray or table. Each is 10 X 5.5 inches and the cup holds about 6 ounces. Heavy, well made, and durable.
