Business genius and hedonist, Charles Schwab entered the steel industry as an unskilled laborer and within twenty years advanced to the presidency of Carnegie Steel.

Cake plate size
Item Package Quantity: 200, Size: 7 Inch Plate
These are more like cake plates or children's plates. I use them for desserts or a sandwich but when I want a bigger one then I get the other ones a bigger size...... The quality is good though and the price is acceptable.
