Very pretty dishes. I bought 4 sets to back up dishes that I already own... The only negative thing I could say at all is that the gold "trim" is practically non-existent. It is not "gold," (which is good, because if it were, you could not put these in the dishwasher,) and the trim is super subtle. So, if you are attached to the gold highlights...keep moving. Otherwise, the price for these dishes (on sale) is rockin', and they are sweet.  Easy to mix and match with your other dinnerware for the holidays. Hope this helps!
