Love the pattern on the set. Set arrived in perfect condition. Cereal bowls are on the flat side and take a little bit to get use to. Mugs are on the large side. When I put a mug in the microwave, I notice that the handle is very hot upon removel. I use a different type of mug in the microwave. All in all I love the set.

I am very happy with this gorgeous set of authentic Italian dinnerware. The design is hand-painted so that one can see the flowing brush strokes. The yellow center surrounded by flowers is like the sun in a garden, giving a cheerful feeling, and making food look appetizing. My only suggestion is that the shade of yellow is a cooler and lighter, more lemon yellow than the picture on the website. Personally I prefer the cool yellow on the dinnerware I received, as it gives a spring morning effect. But it could be a problem for anyone looking to match a warmer yellow.

Caleca Giardino is the answer to my search for dinnerware with real Italian soul.

Great set, very pretty, and high quality. Bowls are a bit shallow at first glance, but once you get over how shallow they look you realize that they are just as functional as the smaller but deeper styles.

I'm very pleased with my purchase and would recommend this set to anyone.

There is an entire generation (or two or three!) of Italian kids who grew up eating pasta served from bowls that looked just like this! I had to get them because they reminded me of the pasta and salad bowls I grew up with. The quality is suberb; the colors are vibrant but not garish. A great value and just beautiful to boot. Buon appetito!

This dinnerware is really spectacular for the money. It has a great look and feel, every piece is hand-painted, and it's non-toxic. I have 2 different patterns, and every piece is a work of art. It is great in the dishwasher, microwave, and freezer. You really can't go wrong.
