Mikasa Parchment Gold 40 Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 8

Esta es la vajilla! Es hermosa, de excelente calidad, lujo, sofisticación y funcionalidad.

This 40-piece set of Mikasa Regent Bead "porcelain china" is practical and beautiful. According to Mikasa, this pattern is not "fine china" and the primary distinction between their porcelain china and fine china is the level of detail- their fine china has more intricate details, while the porcelain china has larger details. "Fine bone china" has the added distinction of being fine china that contains bone ash. Although not "fine" china, the Regent Bead pattern is high quality and has lovely details that make this a fabulous- but more affordable- set of china.The dishes are white, smooth and glossy and are rimmed with platinum along the inside and outside borders. Platinum dots or "beads" line all the platinum borders, and the four triangular platinum shapes are scalloped (rather than angular) and add a nice touch at the outer borders. Tiny white dots fill the space between the platinum rims and also cover most of the outside of the cups. The platinum trim makes this porcelain china classic and elegant, while the scalloped triangles, "beads" and white dots give this china a contemporary, modern flair.Given that the design is elegant yet also contemporary, I think it's perfect for upscale everyday dining and nice dinner parties too if paired with better linens and flatware. This porcelain china feels strong and durable enough to withstand everyday use, and Mikasa informed me it's chip resistant just like their fine china. These pieces can't go in the microwave, but they are dishwasher safe- making after party cleanup much easier and also making this set more practical for everyday use. The Mikasa site indicates it's best to use a delicate cycle and stop the dishwasher before the drying cycle to avoid heat damage to the platinum details. This is a beautiful set of porcelain china and an outstanding value (current price on Amazon varies between $169-$199). Definitely recommend.

My wife loves this dinnerware set. The package It is nice and elegant. It has all the needed plates and bowls for having a good dinner invitation. I had guests and they all liked it, plates are of good size for main course, soup and salad. It is definitely a great purchase for the price we paid. Fully recommended

It’s a good bone china dinnerware and really close to the picture. Not too heavy but enough thick. Dishwasher safe and great for gatherings.

Beautiful, but description says not microwave safe in an expanded area but lists as microwave safe in another area. There were also a couple black spots on the dishes in the finish. They are otherwise wonderful and look like the image. Plan to keep, but likely wouldn’t have purchased these had we realized beforehand that they were not microwave safe.

Such a beautiful set! I like the pattern. I think it will last long as long as I keep it safe. I do dishes by hand, after many everyday uses, they are still good. I got 2 largest plates that were not even, but i mean, it comes 40 pieces with this sale price, i can not complain..

I purchased two services for eight each and am so happy with the packing and quality of the dishes. I selected used sets and every piece came fully intact and none of the internal boxes were opened. The pieces are all of nice size particularly the dinner plate which is approximately 10.5 in. I love the pattern and I'm so excited to use these for upcoming holidays.

I've been wanting some china for a whole. I've seen the Mikasa Parchment online and really liked it. When I saw this set at black Friday sale price I HAD to order it!!When I opened the box (undamaged) I was thrilled with the pattern on the plate, until I saw the flaws.I pulled out 3 plates and all 3 had flaws in the silver trim-- it was rubbed off in several places and 1 was chipped. The first plate had a black spec in it -- could feel it but it wasn't something that would come off. It is embedded in the finish on the plate.The pictures don't show up as well, but even my husband remarked how bad they looked for new china.I am so disappointed. I do love the pattern but not this set with flaws. I haven't even taken any more pieces out to see how many are messed up. 3 plates was enough for me..These plates appear to be seconds and should be labeled as such.I won't be able to ship them back for a few weeks due to my schedule, but will definitely be sending them back. Very disappointed.(But will definitely try to find this pattern of china that's not seconds- I love it!)
