Ivy Lane Design Ceramic Love Letter Dish, Letter B, White

I didn't look at the size before ordering these so when I received them they were much smaller than I expected. I bought these more as a decorational piece for a bridal shower and I'm incredibly happy with them. I'm not sure how big I was expecting them to come but two letters and an ampersand will probably hold 2 bags of m&ms. These are adorable, I recommend them to others!

Ok, I had to return it twice because it broke in shipping, but when I finally received it, it was perfect and arrived right on time. My friend was getting married and we were throwing her a bridal shower so we bought the initial dishes and filled them with little things like mints, olives, etc. Super cute and she loved them. It served (no pun intended) a triple purpose: a decoration, serving dish, and a gift for the bride.

It is not big. However, it works for me, it gives a hint of balance to the rest of my coffee stands.

So I read the reviews and decided to do a test order before buying the entire letter set that I wanted. I placed my order in January 2016 and received it in a timely manner. I ordered the 'A', 'Z', 'L', and '&' dishes. Here are my impressions:1. The fixed the backwards 'L' issue. My 'L' is fine and faced the correct direction.2. The letters came in two different size boxes and mostly filled them. The 'L' and the '&' came in a narrow box and the 'A' and 'Z' came in a wider box. Both sets of boxes matched each other in height. This is reflected in the letters they contained. All 4 dishes matched in height.3. The color of all 4 are about the same. In sunlight they all appear cool white and none stand out as being significantly different.4. The quality is about average. They are glazed ceramic plates with unglazed bottoms (normal). The glaze is applied in an acceptable fashion. There's a pinprick hole in the 'Z' and '&' and the glaze is a little lumpy on the 'A'. None of this will affect its use as candy dishes. The lines of the dish are acceptable: The 'A' is a little wavy on the inside of the triangle, but you only notice if you really look.5. The only thing that catches your eye is that the 'Z' is proportioned to appear just like a 'N' if you turn it sideways. Most texts make the 'Z' a little narrower.As far as I know Ivy Lane is the only one producing these dishes. I wish they were made in melamine since I want to use them at a kid's party. Still, these are just fine for use at a supervised party. They are just the right size to use as a table decoration in a group. The fact that they also hold candy or other small items (not soup or dip or, etc.) is incidental as they are primarily a decoration w/food rather than a real serving dish.

I was so excited for this to come in! I thought it was going to be just a bit bigger, but it really is perfect and big enough for what I want to put in it. No cracks or chips and it’s smooth.

This is WAY smaller than I thought it would be, size of my hand. Also has black scuffs on it as well.

Well it is half my fault for not looking at the customer reviews. This is way too small for the price. I though that it would be a little bit more wider. I wanted this to be the big focal piece of my wedding table but now it will be the small focal point. Not impressed for the cost of shipping and all the letters that I needed. Guess my lesson is learned to always look at the customer reviews.I think that they need to take a picture with something to show it to scale. Would be much more helpful or at least say, it is practically the size of the photo you are looking at. Anyhow...waste of $100 bucks!

I made plaster theatre awards with these, and they worked great. I used a silicone lubricant spray from home depot, some dapp plaster of paris, and I put a guitar pick up against the top right edge and it popped out in one piece after an hour of setting. I had to make 30 trophies last year, so it was much more cost effective than buying individual plastic or wooden Ts. I'm ordering a few more, so I waste less plaster.
