Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Bands of blue, varying in width and shade, set against a light-sand background evoke a Brazilian beach and cloudless sky in this casual dinnerware pattern called Rio. Particularly striking is the salad/dessert plate, with its subtly shaded, solid-blue center calling to mind a summer twilight. This set consists of a complete place setting: an 11-1/4-inch dinner plate; an 8-1/2-inch salad/dessert plate; a 6-inch, 20-ounce soup/cereal bowl; and a 10-ounce mug. Made of heavy stoneware, Rio pieces are chip-resistant and safe in the oven, freezer, microwave, and dishwasher. This dinnerware carries a three-year warranty against defects, and you can replace each piece individually. Pfaltzgraff makes Rio available in dinnerware, glassware, and accessories. --Fred Brack

Product Description

Rio introduces a whole new way to look at stripes. Relaxed blue stripes take turns shifting positions and changing from wide to lean while continually maintaining their order on this exuberant dinnerware. For added interest, the stripes are reinterpreted in differing locations on each piece for a never-dull, often unexpected look.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great set of dishes, December 7, 2002

Pfaltzgraff has always been synonymous with quality. The Rio pattern place setting is a great example. The plates are nice, heavy stoneware with a great design. I appreciate simple and manly design of the dishes.

These plates are excellent for serving pancakes or foie gras. They can easily pass for casual or elegant. The colors of the plates make them easy to accent with napkins, glasses, placemats, centerpieces, etc.

My only complaint is that after a while the dishes show light gray streaks from silverware scraping them. They do not wash off, but don't really take away from the overall visual elegance of the plates. This small flaw is what prevented me from giving the set 5 stars
