Two years ago I bought the Red Vanilla 16-piece set (dinner plates, salad plates, rimmed soup plates and mugs) in the Tuscan Villa pattern. I'm still happy with them. They are used daily and I hand wash everything. No chips, cracks or imperfections. I've added these cereal bowls to complete my set. I use the salad plates as "dinner" plates, the rimmed soup plates as "salad plates" and these cereal bowls are of a nice size for soups-chili. Love them.
