Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Easy Mediterranean style makes for a timelessly appealing table with Mikasa's Italian Countryside dinnerware. Crafted of naturally durable stoneware with an all-over creamy white glaze, this alluringly textured pattern is embellished with delicate fluting on wide borders and pretty scrollwork around the rims. The simple, generous shapes are substantial yet graceful with elegant details like a flared bowl rim and slender, arched mug handle. A lovely everyday pattern, Italian Countryside also lends a simple refinement to more formal gatherings. This 16-piece set includes four place settings, each with a 10-inch dinner plate, 8-inch salad plate, 6-inch cereal bowl, and a 7.2-ounce mug. Dishwasher- and microwave-safe. --Kara Karll

What's in the Box 4 place settings. Each place setting consists of: 10-inch dinner plate; 8-inch salad plate; 6-inch cereal bowl; 7.2-ounce mug. 16 pieces total.

I loved my Italian Countryside set when it arrived, the neutral color without being totally plain was exactly what I wanted, having gotten tired of blue stoneware that clashed dreadfully at the holidays. I unpacked them and washed them and got ready to put them away... and HELLO... the dinner plate won't fit in my older style 12" upper cabinet!! I was standing in the kitchen ready to cry because I thought I was going to have to send them back until my handy husband was able to rout out the back of the cabinet door enough to let them fit. The plates stick out just far enough that the door wasn't closing, so measure your cupboards before ordering. Other than that I like the set very much. A few small flaws in the glaze on the back of the dinner and salad plates but none on the upper surface. I also love having so many other pieces available in the pattern. I am also quite happy that my very hard on the dinnerware husband has not broken or chipped a single dish yet. That is testament to the dishes not to his being more careful!

I love the dishes and posted a positive review on the 45-piece set. With this particular item I ordered two sets. The sets were shipped separately and oddly the top salad plate in EACH BOX was broken. Seems like Mikasa needs to re-think the packing for this configuration. (Amazon's outside packaging was good with those air-bubble spacers in the box.)

I will add one comment about the size of these dishes. Both the plates and the cereal bowls are OVERSIZED. I was really surprised at the size of the cereal/salad bowls.

I received my dishes earlier than expected. I excitedly opened the box to find 5 of the dishes were completey smashed. I see by other reviews that this has happened before. Although Customer Service was very polite and I will be sent a replacement, it was very inconvenient and now will take longer to get them. I do plan on adding to this set, but will think twice about ordering it from here. Amazon, you might want to rethink your packaging. Just a suggestion.
