I have been looking at these plates for a long time now, I can say it was worth the time to search  for them. They are beautiful  . These pictures kind of not lying but they are prettier than the pictures. I want to say thank you to Wayfair for the way they were packaged, well done ( no broken plates in 8 sets). One thing that I noticed, in description the salad plate is 8 however the measurement I took was less than 8. If it was 8 it would have been really a better size of a salad plate. The sizes of the other items are good. Still, they are beautiful  and will be a nice add to any setting of a Christmas table.
