Caldo-Freddo Kon-Tiki Blue 16-piece Dinner Set

Rating

These are more dramatic in reality than the photo shows. When viewing them online I thought they were black and aqua-blue but they are actually a very dark brown which, on the face of the plate, eases into a thin golden yellow section with sprinkles of the brown and then turns a beautiful shade of blue. There is also a slight crackle effect in the blue portion which adds yet another dimension. There is an overall variation in glazing among the pieces which adds to the artistic nature (i.e. some pieces are a slightly less or slightly more intense shade of blue).I can't speak about durability because I haven't had them long enough to comment.

I received 2 sets of these dishes last week and they look very nice. The blue colour was very bright. We used them in the microwave with no problem and they don't scratch. If you want something different, these dishes are the ones to get. I would recommend them.

I ordered these dishes for my daughter for her bridal tea gift and I am so pleased with them. They arrived very quickly and were packed very well and all the pieces were in excellent shape. The dishes are very fine quality and the colors are absolutely gorgeous!!!!! We had been looking for a set of square dishes with the blue and black colors and had not had much luck so we decided to check out OverStock.com and I am so glad we did, it was too easy!!! I can't wait to give them to my daughter and display them at her bridal tea in April. THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!

I have been hunting for a while for a new set of dishes. The style and colors had to be just what I wanted, so when I saw this set I knew I had to order them to see if they were as beautiful as the picture, I could not believe it when I received my set, the colors were just beautiful and I plan to get another set soon. I would most definitely recommend this item.

I ordered three sets of these beautiful dishes. I was a little disappointed by the color. I had 3 or 4 different shades of blue in each box. That was extremely disappointing being that the color on the web page showed a deep blue, and mine ranged from very light blue to deep blue. I did have a couple of peices broke and I notified overstock.com and they had the factory replace the two items broke within a weeks time. I am very happy with my purchase
