Had these dishes for over 2 years, and they are still beautiful. I've never bent one fork or spoon even the slightest. The design is very pretty, and all the utensils have the perfect weight, feel to them. Probably the best flatware I've used in my whole life.

I purchased this set for a dear friend's wedding. She chose this pattern and I shopped all over for the best price and the most pieces. This set was the best value, especially since it includes the large serving fork and spoon and the caddy. I am happy with the set. Lovely.

This silverware is wonderful. We picked it to go with our Mikasa Crown Platinum china when we registered for our wedding presents. We have been very happy with this silverware, it is well balanced and very formal looking. This set is a nice set with the caddy and all!

I'm very picky about my silver, so it took me a while to find this set. Now I'm so happy that I did!
Each piece of silver is balanced so that it doesn't feel to heavy either at the business end or the handle of the piece. It makes for wonderful ease of use and a comfortable fit.
The spoons and forks are the perfect thickness so that they feel substantial but not clumsy.
My husband loves the fact that the small spoons are deep enough to function as soup spoons as well as coffee or desert spoons. The big tablespoons are also deep and very nicely shaped so that they aren't too wide for your mouth if you want to use one.
Of course the design is beautiful and transitions well from the shiny stainless steel head of each piece to the brushed handle. The brushing makes for a fantastic feel to the silverware, not bumpy or uncomfortable or too slick.
The only time I've found a piece uncomfortable was when I was using a fork upside down and with the handle in the center of my palm to shred chicken, in which case the pointy end of the handle presses into the palm of the hand. However I'm pretty sure that wasn't an intended use for it.
A fantastic silver service and one I would absolutely buy again.

We registered for these place settings for our wedding, and we love the pattern. We ordered extra so we'd always have enough silverware, and it's been great to have. The design is beautiful - pictures don't do it justice, and the bonus tray has actually come in handy!
