  1. What type of use of a plate of the “Sterling Vitrified China, WW2 U.S. Navy, Ohio: 44,800 ppm Lead” will cause a problem for a person – heating food on it in a microwave ? placing already hot food on it ? placing cold food on it ? The same question for the dishware with the thin green stripes on them. Please advise if you could/would and thank you !
