Amazon.com Review

The Giardino tableware pattern from renowned Bavarian crystal producers, The Nachtmann Company, strikes a beautiful balance between contemporary and classic styles. Each piece is thick and solid, with a shape evocative of serveware from a royal, medieval court. The plates feature an impressed thumbprint design in a circle around their centers, with each bump about the size and shape of a thumbprint, and a rich color reminiscent of dark stained glass from a church window. The plates also have a nice depth, making them great for containing saucy desserts or thickly dressed salads. The plates pair beautifully with Giardino tumblers, which resemble classic goblets. Acquiring more than one set of these plates won't break the bank since they also mix and match nicely with most tableware collections, and they serve wonderfully as gifts for newlyweds or new homeowners.

Crafted from 24 percent, fine-grade lead crystal, the plates have a solid, weighty feel. Bavarian artists at Nachtmann combine well-honed glass blowing skills with state-of-the-art technology to create each piece. The Nachtmann Company has had over 170 years of experience to perfect its techniques, which make use of pure, high-quality raw materials. The company guarantees each of its crystal creations will be repaired or replaced if obvious defects are reported within 10 days of receipt. Defects not immediately perceptible, such as interior damage, must be reported within six months of receipt for repair or replacement. Betsy Herring
