Proper usage of verb in a 'true passive situation' vs. a 'resultant condition situation'.
Ser and estar lead to different structures when combined with
a 'past participle' (pp). Ser+pp gives us the true passive form; i.e. :

On the other hand, estar+pp describes 'a resultant state from a previous
action'; i.e. :
'los platos están lavados y secos' corresponds to 'the dishes are washed and dry'.
