Mikasa "Swirl" Cereal Bowl Review

Mikasa Swirl Cereal Bowl
Average Reviews:

This is a lovely bowl. The very slightly oval shape, not at all pronounced, make it even more attractive. It turned out to be an inch too big for our purpose--we are trying to replace individual salad bowls, so we have given it as a Christmas present filled with local pistachios, etc.

Mikasa's Swirl Tan is the latest color of the very popular Swirl stoneware collection; the tan color stands on its own, or can be mixed and matched with either the white or black versions.The "pottery wheel" feel of each piece gives a rustic look to your table, and the contrasting matte and gloss glazes on each piece makes for a varied looking setting.

Mikasa Antique White 45-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 8 Review

I know I drove my new husband nuts when we registered. I changed my mind about a million times, and researched everything on our registry. I was the worst when it came to choosing China. I looked first at various beautifully painted patterns, only to realize that they weren't dishwasher or microwave safe. And most of the White patterns were so dainty my husband wouldn't even pick them up in the stores, so I was terrified to have them around him and children, since we have 4 neices and 2 nephews under the age of 8. My solution came in this china.
The pattern is elegantly simple so it will never be dated and even though it's thin and light (yes, it's translucent, you can see light through it, but good china is supposed to be) it is a comfortable fit for everyone who uses it, from my 6'6" husband to our 2 year old neice.
This China is also microwave safe, dishwasher safe, oven safe and chip resistant. I've found this to hold true because my husband always overloads the sinks and dishwasher, and tends not to care where he puts things. My Mikasa china is holding up beautifully. My teacups have been used to bake souffles, freeze parfaits and all of the dishes have been repeatedly microwaved. Yes THIS CHINA IS OVEN, FREEZER, DISHWASHER, MICROWAVE ETC. PROOF! My only advise is wipe the cups before they go in the dishwasher.
If you like drinking the milk out of your cereal bowl, I would suggest either purchasing additional cereal bowls or purchasing the smaller set and definitely purchasing additional platters and vegetable bowls. This set comes with rimmed soup bowls and they are not good to sip out of.

Blending everyday durability with special-occasion flair, this 45-piece dinnerware collection makes a versatile option suited to a variety of living styles and needs. The handsome pieces feature chip-resistant, porcelain construction for long-lasting beauty even under rigorous use. Marked by subtly scalloped edges and a Colonial-style profile, the smoothly accented plates and bowls sport raised ridges that give way to slightly indented food surfaces, while the gently ridged mugs bring elegant dimension to the table. Furthermore, the pieces' lightweight, stackable design offers space-saving storage in cupboards, drawers, or hutches. Great for family meals and casual gatherings, the pure-white dishes layer tastefully together--and with complementary table linens and flatware--to create a truly fine dining experience. Microwave- and dishwasher-safe, the set includes eight place settings consisting of a 10-inch dinner plate, an 8-inch salad plate, a 10-inch rimmed soup bowl, a 6-1/2-inch saucer, and a 10-ounce teacup, as well as the following service pieces: 10-3/5-inch vegetable bowl, 12-inch round platter, 6-inch-tall creamer dish, and 6-inch-tall covered sugar bowl.
What's in the Box 8 place settings and 5 service pieces. Each place setting consists of: 10-inch dinner plate; 8-inch salad plate; 10-inch soup bowl; 6-1/2-inch saucer; 10-ounce teacup.

The Johnson Brothers Regency is timeless. I have had my original pieces for 26 years and they still look wonderful.

The simplicity of white, elegantly fluted, works for nearly any occasion. Create a casual country atmosphere with gingham textiles and chunky glassware, or strike a note of urban sophistication with crystal stemware and dark subtly textured linens.

Mikasa English Countryside Round Vegetable Bowl Review

Great quality! I've had this pattern for 5 years and continue to be satisfied. I recently added this vegetable dish to my set. It's sturdy, versatile (going from microwave to dishwasher), and neutral so that I can mix and match with my other table settings. The round vegetable bowl is heavy and resistant to chipping. It's approximately 10-1/2" wide from side to side, the rim itself 1-1/2", and the bowl about 3" deep. I primarily use it to serve veggies but recently I served a tossed salad in it to serve 3 people and it worked well.
