You don't want to tell us what these plates are made of?

No Frank, I do not want to tell you what the plate is made of but since I am here I will. It is made of a very lightweight but extremely sturdy, nonstaining, non-leaching, polypropylene. You might think it would be hard to pack but it could be placed in a backpack any number of ways. The real advantage of this plate is you can have stew, soup, pancakes with dripping syrup all over them and not one drop falls into your lap. That said, not having sweet bear attractant all over your clothing is a real plus in bear country.

Paper, but the design side is glossy. These are *extremely* flimsy, pretty much like cheapo paper plates.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think they are 100% ceramic. If they were just ceramic-coated, I think I would have noticed by now because I've had it for a year and I haven't noticed any wear or tear on the plates. It works great!

i would like to know too. I deduce that if it's this difficult to determine, they don't want you to know. That's an answer to me. tx

Not sure what they are made of. They are not rubbery, but have a slightly rough texture to prevent slips.

These are flat salad or dessert plates. I really love these. When you set up your table these plates look like china. My family was amazed and then excited that these dishes were plastic and could be thrown away. (I have to admit I do wash and reuse them.)

There is a stamp on the bottom of each of the plates that says it is made in China.

Just flat cheap paper plates, with flat color printing on them. NOT sectioned like tv dinner trays or cafeteria / army / camping plates.

I'm not sure, not being home now I can't look at one to find out. They are very nice dishes tho.

I think they're made of heavyweight aluminized steel with a typical nonstick coating. They are dishwasher safe and truly awesome!

The plates and bowls are manufactured in the US. The cups are not actually Corelle material (they're porcelain), and are from China.

Sorry, I guess I really don't know that. Gave them to my mother to put in her drawers and haven't handled them or anything. She lives in a different state so I don't see her that often to check to see what they are made of.

The plates are clay stoneware. They are not your typical heavy stoneware, but are microwaveable. The outside of the dishes are not colored but are a natural beige color. The insides are painted only.

They are coated paper plates. They are pretty for that old Victorian look but definitely not worth the price!
