Amazon.com Review Inspired by 19th-century botanical illustrations, Portmeirion Botanic Garden dinnerware features a lush array of hand-painted blossoms. The pieces are perfect for a mix-and-match sensibility and suitable for year-round dining. Made in Britain from high-quality porcelain, they are safe in the oven, freezer, microwave, and dishwasher. Executed with incredible detail, these Botanic Garden dinner plates display the pattern’s floral images in graceful variation. Each piece features a different central illustration of a flower surrounded by butterflies on the wing. The vibrant drawings are labeled with the flowers' Latin and common names and bordered with a wreath of laurel leaves on the slanted rim. The set includes six plates in all, featuring a clematis, a peony, a lily, a Christmas rose, a magnolia, and an azalea. Each plate measures 10-1/2 inches in diameter. --Emily Bedard 0
