Hello AT,
I recently saw these plates on the Fox show "Bones." They're beautiful, but I cannot find them anywhere.
They're square, white, and they look to be 12x 12". However, they're a lot more gracefully curved than the typical white square plate...

Do you know who makes them? I tried to find information from Fox, but no luck. Here's the screenshot of the plates in the scene.
Thanks! Jessika, who's tired of her boring round plates.
Anyone???

I recently bought a set of 12 from CB2 not exactly the same but similar.
pearl river has square plates.
You might find them in Pearl River Mart (477 Broadway).
Luna Garcia in Venice, CA
i'm not sure about NY but in SF there are tons of stores that sell japanese nik-naks that have plates similar to that. places like this http://www.daiso-sangyo.co.jp/english/ will have them
We have 6 sets of these from c&b and love them. Square with soft curves.

Refresh your table with water-colored glass, tempered for toughness in soft squares. Translucent blue lightens or deepens based on the color of its background.
• Pressed, tempered glass
• Dishwasher- and microwave-safe
Macy's has them too.
I once had square plates and found them to be really annoying to handwash. The shape is counterintuitive and tedious to handwash. And if you have a small sink, it makes it even harder. Just something to think about!
We purchased a set of B.Smith square curved dinner plates at BB&B, see the link below. It looks like the ones in the show have a more severe edge and corner, though:

I wish the "square plate fad" would go away. They are so cumbersome and VERY easy to break.
Crate and Barrel/CB2 have some. I've seen some very nice ones at Bed bath and Beyond, that were far less unweildy-looking.
I bought those exact plates, in cream, at C&B about two years ago. I don't use them all that often because I have the exact same problem the guy on the show does, but I have come up with a solution. I use the plates as kind-of mock bowls and eat my pasta with chopticks. Don't laugh, at least I get to use them now. It's hell trying to cut a piece of meat on them :)
I have two of the dinner plates. The back indicates they are B. Smith With Style from PTS International. Am also looking to get at least 4-5 more.
