small salad plates

Small plates range from mini/appetizer sizes (about 4–4.5 inches) up to common salad plates (about 8–8.5 inches), with some options available as large as 9 inches.

They’re made from materials such as stoneware, porcelain, ceramic, earthenware, plastic, and areca leaf (palm).

The most common shapes shown are round and square.

You’ll find retail sets (commonly sold in sets of 4 or 6) as well as bulk disposable counts such as 40 or 100.

Options include disposable plastic mini plates (often labeled BPA-free) and compostable palm-leaf plates described as biodegradable, non-toxic, and chemical-free.
