I started collecting Portmerion over 20+ years ago.  I noticed to buy extra plates but was nervous that they would  look different and perhaps not made in the United Kingdom. I ordered a set of six plates. They arrived very quickly and a as t half the price I would normally pay. Packaged extremely well and nothing was broken. They match my dishes and I’m truly so happy with
my purchase. Next will be salad plates. Thank you.
