Key Features & Selling Points

• Distinctive Artist Artwork: Each plate in this 3-piece set showcases a unique, charming winter illustration—including a vintage ice skate with a holiday tree, a pair of cozy knitted mittens hanging from a blue ribbon, and a colorful striped winter hat and scarf—accented with scattered snowflakes and festive red-and-white dashed rims.
• Versatile Entertaining Size: At 8.25 inches in diameter, these plates are perfectly proportioned for serving holiday cookies, Christmas desserts, appetizers, or festive side salads.
• Discontinued & Collectible: Produced exclusively for Crate & Barrel in the late 1990s to early 2000s, this pattern has long been retired, making pristine replacement pieces and multi-plate sets increasingly difficult to find.
