Handpainted in Italy with a blue checked pattern and greenery, the 16 pieces in this casual dinnerware set present bright, festive place settings for four people. Each place setting consists of an 11-1/2-inch dinner plate, an 8-1/4-inch salad/dessert plate, an 8-1/2-inch pasta bowl, and a 16-ounce mug. The set displays Caleca's vividly colored San Remo pattern of greenery and a tablecloth-like background of checkered blue. Made of heavy, chip-resistant stoneware, the dinnerware is dishwasher-safe. --Reviewer
