Purchased from the Simon Pierce Glass and Pottery store in Brandywine, PA. 12 dinner plates 11 inch, 2 vegetable dishes and two platters, 14 inch and 16 inch. All Simon Pearce pottery is handmade. Somerset was in circulation for a short time in the early 2000s. These were purchased as seconds, which means there are slight flaws in the glazing. Here is a copy of the difference between firsts and seconds from their website: What is the difference between first and second quality? The nature of our handblown glass and pottery is such that each individually made item will have its own character and will contain minor imperfections and variations from piece to piece. All Simon Pearce glass and pottery must meet specific quality control standards for size, weight, height, and shape. It is then qualified to be sold as a first- or second-quality item. Second-quality items simply meet a slightly more relaxed standard but are equally as durable as our first-quality items. Seconds are not available for sale online. Second-quality glass and second-quality pottery are available in our Quechee and Windsor, Vermont, stores
