Honestly, they are not at all what I wanted but I'll still give them 5 stars, as it my my own fault. These are tiny little mugs and I failed to read the word "espresso cup". I was looking for the same looking mugs but bigger, for regular coffee. I don't drink espresso, but to be fair, these are absolutely beautiful, dainty and very light, good quality cups. Just make sure you know they're tiny, not large!
