I think this set is just beautiful, but after washing in the dishwasher, there are dried water spots on them, which I did not expect given the fact they are dishwasher safe.  If it wasn't for that, I'd give it 5 stars.  It really is very pretty.  Just received them a few days ago, so time will tell how they hold up.  Seems every set of silverware I buy, regardless of expense, they always end up with rust spots over time.  We'll see how this goes.
