I have the (almost) complete set of Colorwave in Raspberry which I purchased many years ago. I recently decided to continue with this pattern and buy the individual rim pasta/soup bowls. I was very disappointed to see that the color had changed dramatically. My original color at the time of purchase was more speckeled/mottled and you could see a whitish undertone coming through the raspberry; I liked the coloring and that was part of the reason why I bought most of the complete set.. The new pasta bowls are very densely saturated with color and seem far too deep and dark in comparison. Not only do I not like the dense color, I can't live with the vast difference and will returning them. When the company makes any change in the application of color it makes it difficult, if not impossible, for a consumer to collect additional pieces.
