<p>[QUOTE=&quot;reader, post: 380274, member: 255&quot;]Many thanks Walter for taking the time to post such invaluable info. I’ll continue to pick up pieces from estate sales as I love them and I don’t use them for food but if the pigments do contain metal the fact that “they’re made as art” is kinda bull IMO when so many of the pieces are made exactly like those that should be usable with food and drink. I just enjoy looking at them lined up on my kitchen counters but I don’t use them. I’d also never buy the mugs for that reason as I just can’t see owning unusable mugs lol and I’m more interested in the larger pieces unless they’re covered.</p><p><br /></p><p>So question for you. Am I correct in assuming that ceramics that are stamped “not for microwave use” contain lead or cadmium and that’s why they heat up to blister worthy temperatures?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
