My sister (born 1980) and I (born 1975) have these from when we were born. Was about to settle for a cheaper looking version for my daughter when I stumbled across them here - delighted!

Both me and my brother have these plates from the 1970's both of which still take pride of place on my mums wall. I now have one for my husband and 3 children proudly displayed on my kitchen wall, really I should claim my original but it seems such a shame to split my mums pair. Truly lovely gift.

In 1962 I bought my first plate when I was married. Since then I have bought 4 birth plates for my children and all five have been in pride of place wherever we have lived. Now I am ordering the 7th plate for the seventh grandchild. I love them!!

I bought my first Delft plate in 1975. In 1982, I married my second husband, a wonderful man, and tentatively requested a special plate, to commemorate her 'adoption'. With a central basket of flowers, her new name and the date of our wedding - it takes pride of place above the plates of her three sisters. I have just ordered for my second granddaughter - more to follow I'm sure. Thank you.

FABULOUS gifts. My brothers and I had these as children, now we are all in our 30's with children of our own. Last Christmas my brothers both cried when they opened their presents and found these treasured family favourites for each of their offspring. For as long as we can source them our children and (hopefully) grandchildren and beyond will each receive these lovely plates. THANKYOU

- by Cheryl Drury

I have a plate for each of my sons, born 1969,1972 and 1983. They have always hung down in a row with the eldest at the top. Over the years, the bottom plate has been knocked from it's hook many times and bears the gluey scars of many repairs. The middle plate too shows a few chips; however, the top plate is pristine! I feel I owe replacements to the 2 youngest.

- by joanna rayss

20 November 2008

My cousins and I were given these plates when we were born. I had one made for my daughter when she was born and more recently one for my cousin's baby. Now I am ordering one for my grandson!!!
