Spode Blue Italian 5-Piece Place Setting | Dinner Plate, Salad Plate, Bread & Butter Plate, Teacup and Saucer | Dishwasher Safe | Made in England from Fine Earthenware

Perfect!

Do not know who the shipper is but hope I always get them. Some reviews complain about the dishes being broken so I worry until I open the box then breathe a sigh of relief. These are always well wrapped. This pattern is a puzzle to me, trying to figure it out. Says it is an medieval Italian landscape with historical ruins. Love it.

Great thickness versatility good different sizes quality extreme value

I am very happy with my purchase

I rather suspect durability would be how much they are used and how rough a person is with their dishes these are meant to be like fine china not an everyday dish .They are not heavy, very light weight It's glass it will break if it's dropped; one cup had it's base to break in one shipment of these dishes (got some thru another company). I do love them they are a nice addition to my collection of blue and white dishes. I also have Blue Willow dishes. Hope this helps someone

I absolutely loved the set. Made in England and has great quality. It was packed, shipped, and received in excellent condition. Bought several.

Both my paents are from Italy. I was born in the USA after they were married. Both were here for a few years before they got married. My mother had a few things from Italy. I was suppose to get some of those items but my brother is getting everything now. My brother loves to destroy me. This started when we were children. However, these dishes gave me a feeling of being connected to my Italian roots. There are many great things about Italy. Therefore I have decided to retain the best and leave the rest. In fact I plan on getting more pieces eventually. Family is composed of people who love you. Those will be eating off of these dishes with me.

Despite Amazon's claims that Spode is made in England, the set I received was made in Malaysia. I was very upset by this and almost sent it back, but do like the china and decided to keep it. My Tableware explained that as of late 2007, all Spode china is made in Malaysia or India (I have not verified this). I have no idea how this might compare to the Spode that was made in England. Other reviewers claim that the quality isn't as high, that things are printed off-center, etc. I don't see that with my set, but it's possible that I'm missing something.I'm only giving this 3 stars because the china is not made in England as advertised. I'm happy with the set, but if you're looking for something with a "Made in England" stamp, you probably want to keep looking.My Tableware packaged everything well, and offered very good customer service.
