Those are beautiful!

I went back to look at the page a little closer and discovered that they really have expanded the patterns! Mine have very little of the orange/rust color, mainly blues and greens with the creamy background. I can sure tell that they started to design some that they thought would appeal to the American buyer. I like the older ones better.

Did you see the prices! Gulp!! A few of my plates were $25, and a bit more for large bowls, etc. Some of the newer plates were $45 each!

I don't know how military wives can afford those prices! Pretty plates though. Hopefully they're cheaper bought locally.

They are beautiful, but I do prefer to eat on plainer plates. Just me but I can see where they make nice table settings.

Dirt cheap in Poland, or at least they were. The Unikat designs were high but the salad plates were about $2 in 1998. Mine came from websites that were created to fill the need for the US customer after returning from a tour there. They weren't cheap but not at bad as those are on that site!

A friend of mine has a Baltic amber business, and she travels often to Poland. Last year she showed me some of her pieces, mostly bowls. Beautiful designs, very fancy, and very expensive!

I have a few pieces for decoration that were a gift. Very pretty!

I visited Poland about 7 years ago and purchased a beautiful covered bowl in Krakow. I also purchased beautful amber and I love being reminded of that trip. The pottery is beautiful. Satine

actually, I like white, and light weight. I bought me some Corelle in winter white.

The food shows up so much better. :)

They're beautiful, Jae.

They are very beautiful! I have a few serving pieces I have picked up at Marshall's, TJ Maxx and Tuesday Morning, etc. Just odd pieces, no sets. I just love dishes, but not necessarily sets. I have lots of different kinds of plates, usually 8 of a kind. We live a very casual lifestyle, no formal dinners, but I like a pretty table.

Although I'd never pay those kinds of prices, they are very pretty! And what an amazing variety of patterns!

They are beautiful. I would love to have a few pieces.

All my dishes are polish pottery, the majority of which I've collected over the past years from TJ Maxx & Marshall's. I'm now considering changing my kitchen countertops to granite and one of my concerns is the busy pattern of granite with the busy pattern of my dishes. I can't imagine the pottery on granite but don't want to give up my dishes. I love some of my pieces. Oh, and I was introduced to Polish pottery by my SIL, who was a military wife in Germany for two tours.

They are beautiful but I am one that likes Corelle white dishes too.

Man, I'm so embarrassed..... square white crockery from the dollar store. A plate gets chipped it's gone and replaced. lol It's the same for wine glasses, grab a case and as they go down the tubes we grab another case. :(

Another one that uses Corelle...I LOVE IT! I used to have regular old plates and they are so heavy and cumbersome....Mom bought me a set of Corelle for my birthday one year and I've never wanted anything else.

I own ONE decorative heavy bowl with a chicken painted on it and it's the most cumbersome piece of decor I own. OH yeah and I also have a heavy McCoy bowl I found (large 14") for $2 at a thrift shop...much overrated!

Very pretty. Yes, I can see all the patterns would go with each other.

I also love Corelle white plates. i've had corelle for years in a white with gold pattern. After years of use I went with all white. For serving piece I use Temptations dishes purchased on QVC. Easy cleanup and decorative. Corelle is so light weight and as I age they are easy for me to put into the cabinets. Mary

Have you considered an alternative to granite, I don't want granite, I love veined soap stone soo pretty with out being overly showy. The dishes would go beautifully with it.

I have several sets of dishes and I am clearing out this month, our neighbors are having a multi home garage sale my dishes along with a lot of other un needed and un wanted stuff will be in the sale and gone.
