One stained hairline on one dinner plate (picture 3). It extends from the face of the plate, over the rim and to the underside. It does not appear to effect the integrity of the plate at this time. We poured boiling hot water into the well of the plate, and there was no seepage
There are no chips nor any other cracks nor hairlines nor crazing
The dinner plates have heavy utensil marks, some of which cannot be seen unless held to the light
The other pieces range from light to medium-ish utensil marks
Discolored scuffing on rims and underside bottom feet
From the date codes on the bottoms, most pieces were made in 1970 and 1971
