I purchased the Colorwave Graphite dinnerware about 5 years ago. I could not be more pleased with it's durability and performance. It looks just as beautiful today as the day I bought it and we use it every single day! Over the past 2-3 years I have added the Colorwave Raspberry to the table. It compliments the Graphite beautifully! I Love all things Red, but it is a bit too bold alone. However, the combination of Graphite and Raspberry is Amazing! I plan to use this same dinnerware for life as I don't believe I could ever get tired of it. (Bonus...it works great for Christmas meal also!) I highly recommend the Colorwave!
