Classic pieces to add to any kitchenware. Colorful and dainty designs, lightweight pieces, not easily breakable (and I'm notorious for chipping china and dropping glasses) and functions in microwave and dishwasher. Find the plates are a bit large for the usual dinner plates, say baked pasta or rice and beans, but it's preference. Rice bowls are perfect for portion control and the larger bowls have a cute ladybug/bee on the edge. Daily use.
