Today I
have a review of some wonderful and unique plates from the French indie plate
maker Delaney, and I have to mention that they also sell one of my favorite
brands of stamping polish: Jolifin!
The
language can be switched to English by clicking on the British flag in the left
side menu.
The
plates come separately packed without a protective film or a plastic backing. The edges are not sharp.
The plate size is 12.5 x 6 cm (the length is the same as
plates with plastic backing)
The pattern size is 2.2 x 1.6/1.7 cm
The price for each plate is 6.90 Euro
The etching is and/or feels a little bit shallow, but strangely enough I
always found them easy to use, even when I was rather new at stamping.
Where to buy: As far as I know they only are sold from Chez Delaney.
Let's have a look at some of the plates - click on them to see an enlarged version!
I love their lace plates - so many to choose from and many with a lot negative space in many of them allowing the polish beneath the pattern...
Oh, I love especially one of these patterns LOL - two mani's ;)

Take 135: The base is Chanel Sorbet Orange – Orange
Sorbet stamped with Hit The Bottle The Yolk is on You, plate Delaney Fruits

So what do I think?
Pros:
There
are incredibly many beautiful patterns, and new collections regularly are added
and/or new plates in already existing collections.
Even if the etching is a bit shallow, I already early on in my stamping journey found them easy to use.
The
edges aren’t sharp even if there is no plastic backing on the plates – and I
actually think plates without backing are easier to clean properly after use.
Cons (only website related):
I don’t
have ANY plate related cons, I have bought more times – and will do so in the
future!
The
plate photos on the website are small – but there is a really nice looking
glass to enlarge the patterns after you have clicked on a plate.
I miss
information on the plate size and pattern size on the website.
I would
love a “newsletter” option, so that I get informed of new collections and
sales.
Final conclusion:
I love
these plates, they have so many favorite and unique motifs, I hope you give
them a try.
As I mentioned, I will be back for more Delaney plates in the future.
On a
personal note: I really would love to have Delaney on Instagram…
I hope
you enjoyed this NON SPONSORED review.
