I want to use these as underplate chargers for other dishware. Would a standard dinner plate sit firmly on top of it?

I would suspect yes, but.... I'm in agreement with Kashbee: Depends on the plate. If you're talking dishes from the BIA Bistro line, then yes.

if it's a smaller dinner plate of around 9 91/2". These plates are 11" so they are like large dinner plates.

Sorry, I'm not sure what an underplate charger. I agree with the other comment-- the rim is quite wide, and the plate isn't that large by modern standards. A salad plate would probably be fine.

Check dimensions of both your dinnerware plates and the BIA Cordon Blue plates to judge size. That's the way I would do it. Good luck!

The plate has slanted edges quite far in from the out edges. So i't wouldn't make a good charger.

Yes, these plates will nest perfectly with most other pieces, and are completely dishwasher-safe for accidental drips or stains. Highly recommended.

I would say yes. They are sturdy yet elegant. The sizes of the plates is a plus for me.

No, it will not hold a regular size dinner plate. And I was very unhappy with the workmanship. One of the tiers was configured backwards. I sent it back.

I have placed them in my dishwasher several times with no problems.....just place them carefully...don't pile on top of each other...and you should be okay....they are sturdier than they look.

If the plates are inexpensive and light then yes. Otherwise this would not hold up porcelain or fine china. I have fiesta ware and it wouldn't hold.

The dinner Plate rim is 1 3/4 inches. I don't have the chargers so I don't know the answer to that.

Technically, I don't know. I would not put much more than a dinner plate on it. It would be great for a big bowl of popcorn or chips, and some sodapop. Maybe even a laptop. These are the old fashioned TV trays. You would not want to use it for a lamp or stack of books.

Yes, it would support it, but it would leave the plate an angle since it is for a deep bowl. I think you probably want a plate stand that will hold it almost upright.

Yes they are, some of them didn't screw in very well and weren't sturdy. I used plate chargers on the bottom and $ store plates for the others. They looked very elegant

Yes. Only issue is the liscense plate is half inch too wide to fit between. I lowered my plate. I think it looks better.

There is a cardboard insert, about the weight of card stock, that has four openings.The openings are about 2 1/2 inches in diameter and are shaped so that you can insert a cupcake with two fingers and not touch it. The insert is 1 inch high, so if your dishes are taller than 1 inch, not wider than 2 1/2 inches and not to very, very heavy, this box should work fine. I am not sure if you are looking for something to present them in or ship them in. This box would be fine for presentation, but not shipping.

I don't think so. The sides are about 2" high, and they would be kind of small. I would think for the price you could get some real plates that would work better.

No, it's not a problem for anyone used to using most dish racks! My goodness... This is a no-brainer. It's fairly obvious you should put an item in those locations that cannot fall through!

They will work I think. My plates are smaller as well. I ended up adding some extra padding around the outside of the dishes, but inside the case. It's added protection.. and there's room for it.

Hmm...I don't know specifics (they aren't currently with me). But I do know the thinner ones are not long enough for standard length silver ware. I'm using them as props with fake food, but no silver ware. If the utensils were wrapped in napkins they could easily be held in place in the narrow compartments, but I'm sure they would "hang" over the other compartment.

I had to go measure my plates. No, mine are 10 1/2 & fit comfortably in the cradle. I do not believe they would without shoving & possible damage.

if you buy the proper size disk for that weight it should. you wet the plate and the disk and place them together over night. it will cover most hallmarks. I have them on pottery plates that are not slick on the back. they work well so far. my plates and chargers are not that big nor that heavy.
