Building a China Closet to Cut Breakage by Half
The Boston Traveler advises placing a china closet between dining room and kitchen with shelves about fourteen inches wide and nineteen inches apart to avoid crowding. Corrugated rubber covering reduces breakage by 50 percent, and plates on ends stay upright with a rope fastened at corners and center. Heavy pieces go on the lowest shelf, hooks go under the edge, and shelves are reinforced to prevent loosening from house settling.
