Dorothy Thorpe Plates | Vintage Silver Band Lunch Plates

Dorothy Thorpe Plates | Vintage Silver Band Glass Lunch Plates

These Dorothy Thorpe plates bring classic midcentury elegance to the table, featuring the designer’s signature silver band detail and timeless glass form.

They solve the need for a versatile set of plates that feels both refined and easy to use, perfect for breakfast, lunch, dessert, or everyday serving.

Made in the USA in the 1960s, each plate showcases a clean round profile with a silverplated rim that has gently softened with age. I don't believe these plates were ever used. The glass surface remains clear, while the band shows light patina that adds to their vintage charm. Found in a local midcentury estate, this set blends seamlessly into both modern and classic table settings, offering a subtle touch of design history with each use.
