Question:
Brittany: lead, food safe, and value
Question:
I have some items that are the Brittany pattern. I have a 12" Chop Plate (Round Platter), Creamer, Round Vegetable Bowl, 1 Quart Round Covered Casserole (with lid), 1 Quart Round Covered Casserole (no lid). One casserole has crazed glaze. I have three questions:
1. Do they have lead?
2. Are they safe to use for food?
3. What is their approximate value?
Thank you. Carol
