This unique dinnerware set is absolutely lovely! The pictures do not due it justice as the delicate pattern and overall look of this set is just gorgeous in person! Probably not recommended for younger children, although just perfect for adults, the plates seem to be a little bit light and easily chipped or broken this could be due to their unique square shape and the generous oversized dinner plates. Plenty sturdy with just a little extra care truly worth it, these are so pretty, especially with a french country design scheme so popular and timeless!
