VERY Disappointing. Fingerprints and smudges appear the moment you handle a plate, bowl, ect.-so unless you set your table wearing gloves, beware.
Additionally , this dinnerware shows knife marks and other scratches left by silverware and other what-not, and is also  prone to chipping. The chips reveal what I'd suspected-the black color is simply a glaze covering bland white stone-wear. 
Save your money and "pass" on this set. I wish I had.
