Is this set microwave safe?

Yes. Every piece is microwave safe because there is no metallic trim. Stoneware heats up itself, so plates can get hot after several minutes.

How many people does it serve?

Eight. You get eight dinner plates, eight dessert plates and eight bowls, so a full setting for eight people.

Yes, all pieces are dishwasher safe. Matte black stoneware can develop a cloudy film from hard water, so a rinse aid helps.

Stoneware is thicker, heavier and more chip-resistant, which suits daily use. Porcelain is lighter and finer but more fragile.

Yes. It is BPA-free and has no metallic decoration. The trade-off is weight; bowls and dinner plates are heavy for young children to carry.

Yes. The plates and bowls are designed to stack, which keeps a full 24-piece service compact in a cabinet.
