I have had a Colonial Boston flatware set of 12 for many, many years. When I saw the fantastic price offered by a Wayfair sale, I couldn't resist adding an additional service for 4 more. My current set has held up extremely well - still appearing new after 30+ years. The additional services arrived literally within TWO days! I wasn't particularly looking to purchase additional flatware, but with Wayfair's sale it would have been an awesome opportunity missed if I hadn't added them to my cart. Wayfair, you rock! Thanks for a really great price on a quality item!!
