Manufactured and decorated by hand in Sicily for over 200 years, this Italian pottery from Caleca maintains a high level of durability, beauty, and tradition. Individually constructed and painted by hand, each piece receives a stamp ensuring its authenticity. With or without the official seal, the brightly saturated colors and whimsically fresh patterns are instantly recognizable as Caleca designs. An 11-inch dinner plate, 8-1/2-inch shallow bowl, 8-1/4 inch salad plate, 6-ounce tea cup, and 6-inch saucer make up the Pink Garland 5-piece place setting with service for one from Caleca. Soft pink centers cover the serving areas, encircled by a garland of delicate rosebuds, while light green leaves and pink and blue accents add a romantic feel to the pattern. Crafted from lead-free, non-toxic clay, all Caleca dinnerware is chip-resistant and can safely be placed in the dishwasher and microwave. --Lea Werbel What's in the Box

I have wanted these dishes since I was a little girl. I grew up in Sicily (where they are hand made) and I have been so upset over the years that I left and never got my pink Pati dishes. The dinner plates are huge great for all the big family dinners. The bowls are not you american bowls, they are very shallow and great for soups and pasta, they are great just don't expect to unpack a deep cereal bowl. The cups, I love the cups they are just beautiful I only wish Amazon carried the teapot. You feel like a princess when you drink your morning tea or coffee out of these cups. The set is durable and so beautiful. You will want to design your room around these dishes. If you are looking for an old world, Euopean feel why buy dishes made in China?? You can not go wrong with these dishes. I personally have only had mine a short time but all of my sisters have had theirs for 15-20 years and they are still holding up beautifully. Keep watching the price though it has varied from $25 to $12 just since I have been ordering them.
