Gibson Elite Milanto Round Embossed Reactive Glaze Stoneware Dinnerware Set, Service for Four (16pcs), Grey

I purchased one set of the blue color and one set of the red color so I had to mix and we have really enjoyed these. I bought them back in 2021 and they have held up really well. Very happy with the quality and the price.

Love the look and color of my dishes. They clean well in the dishwasher. My husband is bothered that one dish isn't perfectly leveled on the underside but I never even noticed it. I did notice that the spoons will leave mild abrasions (not scratches) in my coffee cups from stirring creamer in my coffee.

I am recently widowed and am changing many things that my husband and I had. It helps. I was looking for a new set of dinnerware and I spotted these. They are so beautiful! Blue is my favorite color, so that was a plus! They are strong and sturdy and so easy to clean! I love the size of each piece, especially the generous mug size. I haven't tried them in the microwave yet, but I know they are microwave safe. That's a great feature. I am going to love these for a long time!!

This dish set looks totally beautiful and so well-made. I love it.

I love these dishes! The scroll embossing on the plates adds a touch of elegance and color variation that is very appealing. I have had my set of 12 place settings for a number of months now, and bought this last set of four to have on hand for replacements. They are ceramic, but not stoneware, so they do chip and break if roughly handled or banged against a hard surface. I would not say this happens easily, but I would not let young children bang them about either. So far, I have chipped the edge of a bowl by bumping a pot against it (a tiny chip that is barely noticeable, so I did not toss it), and my cat broke a plate by pushing it off the counter (major eye roll). No biggie. The other thing I love about these plates is that they match so many other dishes. Although the cups are large enough for a big (close to 16 oz) cup of coffee, I wanted slightly larger ones for my chai teas with milk, so I bought some beautiful mugs with blue birds and flowers on them and they are lovely with this set. I also purchased a set of hand-painted Italian platters and bowls as serving pieces to go with this set. They look great together. The variation in the blue glaze on these dishes makes these plates easy to match with other dishes.

These dishes are probably some of the best value for casual dining. Stylistically, they sit very comfortably between bland monochromatic and flamboyant multi-color. The description says that the pattern is Italian. I don’t know enough about Italian design to verify that, but the pattern seems more Indian or Latino, which should broaden their appeal across multiple cultures. The solid color, matte black interior/underside, and glossy finish help give these just the right amount of sophistication without being stuffy.The only downside is the thickness, or lack there of. Other stoneware I’ve had was much thicker and solid. Maybe the thinness is to make them more “fancy”. Regardless, as other reviews have mentioned, these should not be banged about.Enjoy these as a great way to make your everyday meals a little nicer. Just be careful with them.

These look great and seem very sturdy. However, I was sent to set so I’m returning one set. This has been happening on Amazon lately.

The dishes are so beautiful! The stunning! I have gotten so many compliments already! But truth be told I just love looking at them while using them. Food with all its colors looks so pretty plated on these dinner plates. The coffee mugs are well balanced and feel good in my average sized woman's hand. I love the dark inside of the bowls and coffee mugs. So far so good on durability. But I've only used them daily for a couple of weeks. They did fine in the dishwasher.
