Description

I was given this set about 16 years ago from an elderly woman. I don't know how long she'd had it. It is a clear glass plate with a fern design inserted in it. Each plate has a circle for the cup. It is shaped like an island. that's the best way to describe it. each plate is 7 " wide and 10" long.
