These are very pretty. I ordered Autumn Foliage colors. They were packed well and survived shipping, which was my #1 concern. However, one of the darker colored plates has an obvious flaw that I noticed immediately when unpacking. I do not know if this is only a visual flaw, or if it will compromise the integrity of the dish while baking, I'm no expert. Guess we will see in time. While washing I also noticed they are very, very slippery when wet. Much more than my other dishes, so be careful! Much more satisfied with the shape and depth of the bowls compared to my other set as well.

Our dinnerware set arrived today. The stoneware is an excellent weight. The color is what I expected. This is a very good quality set of dishes at a very affordable price. I bought a set of four to see if the dinnerware would be a welcome addition to our home. Well it turned out to be so much so that I'm ordering another service for 4.
