I like these classic dishes.  The snow white color is a more of an off white with a very small fleck in it. This basic color will go with any accent linens or decorations.  The finish is matte which I prefer to glossy.  The dishes are easy to fit in the cabinet.  The coffee mugs are tall with a small base so they take up less room in the cabinet.  Likewise, the bowls are taller with a smaller circumference.  The salad and dinner plates have a nice generous lip on them.  I do wish that the salad plates were a tad bigger for sandwiches but they will work
