We requested Noritake's Colorwave Graphite place settings on our wedding registry and couldn't be happier. We have eight place settings plus saucers, square plates, creamer, sugar bowl, salt & pepper shakers and extra serving bowls and plates. We use these items as everyday dinnerware but also for special occassions because the collection is so versatile. Our friends and family always comment on how nice the collection is. I love the clean look and the durability of the collection as well as the fact that we can use the plates in the oven, microwave and dishwasher. I am definitely looking to add more Noritake to our collection and would recommend the collection to everyone!
