Ornamental vintage dishes, with colorful painted or engraved scenes , make good items for curio cabinets and holiday displays. Gold trimmed Currier and Ives wall plates depicting winter scenes, a ceramic set of dishes featuring hand-painted pictures of flamenco dancers and French plates sporting a cartoon of hot air balloons are some examples of decorative dishes. They differ from mass-produced collectors' plates in that they often depict one-of-a-kind scenes painted by artists. Some collectors specialize in restaurant dinnerware popularized by diners, company cafeterias, the military and drive-ins in from the early 1900s to the 1970s. You can find vintage dishes through flea markets, thrift stores, antique shops and specialty websites like The BeesKnees.

Recognized vintage brands include Wellsville café china, which is often white plates with a brown or tan line around the side; Iroquois dinnerware, which is also white with two or three colored lines around the side; and Tepco, which is plain tan or white dishes. Vitrified, which means durable, non-chipping china, white plates with a scalloped pattern around the edge, used in hotels and passenger train food service, are also prized by vintage aficionados. Since restaurant dinnerware withstands heavy use, it can sometimes be used for meals despite its age.
