If you like this sort of decor, these stands are nice. They sort of disappear so that the plate stands out. They offer a secure base for decorative plates.
Most of the plates I have seem to be a bit small for this product. But, I have made adjustments to secure my plates. This is a very good quality easel for the job, and it doesn’t take away from my display. It does seem to be a little tall for a 8.5 inch plate, I do recommend it.
