Not all vintage dinnerware may be safe to serve or store food--especially some dinnerware manufactured prior to the mid-1970s and possibly even thereafter. You are encouraged to learn more about this topic, especially if you wish to consider using your dinnerware to serve food. There are lead test kits available to check for lead in ceramics. Families with young children and pregnant women should minimize their exposure to lead in ceramics and elsewhere in the environment.

MODish.net only endorses the use of vintage ceramics for display purposes.
