While there’s no singular quality that makes a great dinner plate, you know when you have a less-than specimen: It looks cheap, and it chips and scratches easily. Among those that are well made ...

This handsome plate is made in India. It’s the perfect design for the modern dinner setup, and its full stainless steel build ensures that it will be there for tomorrow’s dinner as well.

Maybe that’s not exactly true, but we certainly love a dinner set that ... set as “sturdy” and the plates all have a raised rim that adds to their “modern and elegant” look.
