The description is misleading, the plates are not "smooth glossy interior" The bowl is smooth glossy interior. I specifically did not want a matte finish on the plates because it sounds like fingernails on chalkboard when cutting on it. The place setting design is beautiful if you don't mind matte finish.

Item came damaged

Item came shipped securely and is made with great quality.

I purchased this dinnerware set several years ago and now I'm adding to the set. They have held up nicely through the years. Please remember, this is a place setting for one.

It’s good quality And I love the color

I was looking for an attractive, durable, every-day dinner set. I fell totally in love with Mikasa Swirl in white. It is a beautiful set - very pretty, lovely off-white color, feels sturdy, nice shapes in the mug and bowl. LOVE IT. I brought one place setting home to try it out, along with a handful of other brands / styles. No question - Mikasa Swirl was the winner. The dinner plate looked big, so my husband tested it in our kitchen cabinet to make sure it fits - and somewhow we thought it did fit. I ordered 8 place settings and 2 extra dinner plates and side plates. So, the set arrives and I'm so excited to get rid of the old stuff and install Swirl. I unpack the first box, stack it up in the cabinet and....... the doors won't close fully :( The dinner plate is about half an inch too big on the diameter. I am devastated - they have to go back. We also put it in the dishwasher to see if it would fit. We didn't actually do a wash, but it looked like the dinner plate would block the spinning spray arm. I'm giving this set 5 stars and a "Recommend" status because it's just wonderful. Please do make sure it fits your cabinets and your dishwasher before you buy lots of place settings though! From what I've seen I don't think I will find anything that lives up to this set.... so so so so sad.

My daughter and son-in-laws 2 place settings for Christmas will be a great present for them. They love these dishes and use them all the time for everyday and for fancy dinners. Great quality......

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The dishes were very lovely & sturdy but I was disappointed they were only a set of 4 not a set for dishes for 4 .

China was well packed and arrived safely. The only thing is that when I ordered 6 place settings the second time, one box arrived with only two settings. There was no note that a second box would be coming because the packing slip said that there were six settings total. A second box arrived several days later.

Love this new pattern....classic yet contemporary at the same time.
