I am pleased with the looks and size of plates and bowls. Packed well. Not one chip. The only thing that disappoints me is that there is no glazing around the ring under the plate. I can see the potential of dishes scratching when stacking them. I also wish Phalztgraff made serving bowls, a meat platter, fruit bowls, and small dessert plates to match this. I would like an option to buy these rather than the mugs that came with them.
