Myth: “Plain white china is usually Lead-free.” For your consideration, Homer Laughlin Ceramic Plate: 75,032 ppm Lead.
White Wedgwood Bone China Plate: 98,000 ppm Lead. [For context 90 ppm Lead is unsafe in children’s items.]
Lenox Dimension Collection Eternal China, c. 1994: 349,000 ppm Lead (35% Lead!) Over 90 ppm is unsafe in new kids’ items.
Pottery Barn Portugese Dish: 363 ppm Lead. 90 ppm is unsafe in kids’ items [but dishes aren’t used by kids, right?]
