I really love this set.  I considered it because I liked the size of the dinner plates, but I bought this dinnerware because so many reviewers mentioned the green band which I had not noticed in the picture.  Thank you to all who pointed out the green-- a soft sage-- and said the dishes were prettier in person than online.  They are even prettier than that!  Unfortunately, one dinner plate was broken in my 16 piece shipment, but Wayfair replaced the whole box very quickly.  Excellent customer service!  Thank you reviewers and thank you Wayfair!
