These plates are beautiful. They are very Heavy and Large. The bowls are nice and deep and hold lots of ice cream (haha)! Unfortunately all 8 of the dinner plates (I ordered two sets of 4) do not sit level on the counter. They are not flat on the bottom and are "A LITTLE" wobbly. Not enough to send back especially for the price, but just enough to be disappointing.

I bought two sets of these dishes on super-sale for my household. I was worried about the dishes arriving damaged, as stated in other reviews, but, thankfully, both sets arrived together in one large box and every piece is fully intact; I was impressed by the packing job of the boxes. I was curious about the color, as one review stated that they were "too blue." The dishes definitely have a slate hue to them, but slate is one of my favorite colors, so it works for me! The dishes are very smoothly glazed and have a decent weight to them, so they don't feel cheap. I like the size and depth of the bowls. I am excited to use these dishes, and hopefully my family will treat them with great care so they stay perfect for a long time. JK, I have kids. it'll never happen. but it's a nice thought!

My review is for color. I ordered GREY. The dishes are bluish grey…but more blue. They do not look like photo color at all. They are also rimmed with a yellowish color which is weird. It’s a shame because the dishes are nice, unfortunately they clash with my kitchen and are NOT anywhere near color shown.PHOTOS DO NOT SHOW TRUE COLOR..THEY ARE BLUE.

Online these looked to me like a warm blue with a glaze that almost sparkled. They don't look like it in real life in my opinion. I will keep them for $30.00. They seem like fine dishes so far aside from the way they look.

these are nice but can't find anywhere on the plates or the box that these are lead free, Cadmium free

This is a very good set of dishes for our river house. They are sturdy but still elegant enough for company. We wanted something with a little more pizzazz than just plain ordinary dishes. This set hit the mark!

These plates are so pretty. The plate is nice and heavy. The sides curve up which is good to keep food from spilling off. The pattern on each one is similar but a little different. The bowls are deep and sturdy.

I like the size and stackability of the dinnerware. The color and pattern are off though. It looks cheap, not as pictured.
