Charming & usefulApr 20, 2008
I was nervous about ordering this collection, as there were no reviews on Amazon nor could I find one anywhere on the web. They weren't available at any nearby store, so I couldn't see them in person. However, after several weeks hemming & hawing, I finally took the plunge. I am 110% glad that I did.
I ended up buying 8 place settings as well as many other pieces in this collection. They are all very charming as well as useful. The "cottage" plates and platter are quite impressive with their unusual shape and cutaway design on the edges. The little lamb vase is adorable and mine currently holds a half dozen roses. The "Irish stew pot" is large and will be wonderful for stews and soups when the winter rolls around again. The butterdish is also adorable, as are the storage containers shaped like cottages. It should be noted that these cottage/house storage containers are ceramic (and not stoneware like the rest of the collection).
I should finally note that these pieces aren't "overly precious." I prefer a "bungalow style" ... e.g. relatively simple designs made of quality materials. I would have gone with something in a solid ivory, green, or gold if this wonderful collection hadn't captured my imagination. Although it's a matter of personal taste, it seems to me that there's a fine line between kitsch and charm. This collection represents a rare combination of charm, simplicity, and everyday usefulness.
