Using these charger plates is a breeze. Just place them on the table before setting the main dinnerware. They're great for formal events like receptions and banquets. When it comes to cleaning, simply rinse them under hot water. Don't use the microwave or dishwasher as they're not suitable for these appliances. Keep them in a dry place to maintain their durability. Remember, the sale only includes the charger plates, so you won't get any other decorative accessories.
