Define "lately".

I bought my Pfaltzgraff in 1980.

products may exceed the Food and Drug Administration’s (“FDA”) guidance levels for lead and/or cadmium.
I wonder where they were made.

Any guesses?

The Aura pattern was my very first big girl stoneware. That stuff didn't chip - I finally let it go when the knife marks on the plates were just too much to look at. I think that took at least 20 years.

My pattern is Juniper, which is like Aura, but with a green stripe instead of the blue stripe.

We purchased it when we got married, so it's almost 19 years old.
I see very pretty dishes that I would love to replace it with, but I have a lot of interesting serving pieces and bowls, so I probably will be using the same stuff 19 years from now.

Other recalls, not all of which made the national news:
