This stand includes a gold tone hardware set in zip bags with a special bottom bolt to transform it into a tiered server. The special bolt included enables the low-profile bottom plate to sit flat. The cake stand is shipped without assembly. Directions for assembly are included with your hardware set.

Each plate is wrapped securely in bubble wrap and other packing to ensure safe delivery.

To maintain the condition they are currently in, it is recommended to hand-wash the plates and hardware. Do not use them in the microwave, and do not put them in a dishwasher.

This would make a lovely gift for a china collector or anyone who yearns for the beauty of our not-too-distant past. I have other tiered cake trays available on my site, so check them out if you are looking for a slightly different pattern or for a variety of patterns for a big event.

General Shipping Info:

Fixed Rate Shipping

With fixed rate shipping, I average the cost to ship the item to the middle of the country, Zone 4, 5, or 6, from East Tennessee. If the cost to ship the item to you is more than the average in the listing, you will not pay more. If you live closer to me, and the cost is less than the average in the listing by $2+, I will refund shipping overages after the purchase is made. Fixed Rate shipping allows me more control how I pack and ship each item and how I combine shipping on multiple items. I try to offer as reasonable rates as possible, but I cannot control USPS, UPS, or FedEx rate increases. Please contact me if you have questions.

Combined Shipping

I am happy to combine shipping on most types of items in my shop as long as the items are similar in weight, and I can pack each item securely together in one box so they all arrive undamaged. I do not generally combine shipping on heavy or bulky items, such as large garden art. I pack each item with utmost care to buying ensure that every item is delivered without damage. Please contact me if you are interested in combining shipping. I usually will combine items after they have been purchased, pack the items into one box, calculate the combined shipping, and then refund the excess shipping charges you have paid. Please contact me have any questions.

For Heavy/Bulky Items

I generally use UPS Ground or FedEx for heavier and bulkier items, especially if it is travelling to a zone farther away from me in Tennessee. FedEx requires a delivery phone number in case they need to contact the recipient. UPS Ground does not require a phone number. Please provide a delivery phone number in a note when you purchase a listing that ships FedEx. Thanks!
