non-toxic tableware (ie no lead, not made in china etc...)

[Anonymous]

does anyone worry about this WRT your tableware. does anyone know where you can buy plates etc that are definitely safe or safer?

if it's baked ceramic, it should be ok, right?

Go to Williams Sonoma, Crate and Barrel, Bed, Bath, and Beyond and look on the backs of plates to see their origin. Its hard to find this info on the web.

No, lead does not disappear at high heat.
