While there are many pieces in the Wexford line with a hexagonal base, there is exactly one plate.
I normally find them individually for about $3 to $6 thrifting. Online searches can find them up to $13 to $16 apiece, but multi-piece listings with find some lots closer to thrift store prices if the shipping isn’t outrageous.
This plate frustrates me as it is absolutely gorgeous and yet is so unrelated to anything thing else for a place setting.
I found my first footed hex plate before I found a copy of Fire-King & More, and I was skeptical that it was even Wexford. Every other piont has a foot set back about an inch from the edge.

Versatility:
It’s just a plate, albiet a neat one. It could feature anything: a dessert bowl, a candle, a potted plant, candies. It even fits beneath the cookie jar/ice bucket or the captain’s decanter perfectly. A smart little tea towel would make it a great condensation catcher to save a wooden bar top.
