I love the way these dishes look and feel! Perfect for formal meals and they make regular meals feel special. There is more of a size discrepancy between the bowls than I could tell from the pictures. The large bowls are wider than I anticipated but they are great for soup/stew, poke bowl, rice bowl or a big helping of salad. The small bowls are great for normal size helpings of cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, and ice cream. If you have a hungry teenager they will likely want more than one helping with the small bowl.
