- Is this set really chip resistant?
- The stoneware is high-density and fired at 2340°F, which makes it tougher than ordinary earthenware. No ceramic is chip-proof, so avoid stacking bowls rim to rim and handle plates with care.
- Can the plates and bowls go in the microwave and dishwasher?
- Yes. Every piece is rated microwave and dishwasher safe, so it moves from reheating to the dishwasher without special handling.
- What is in the 18-piece set?
- It is six place settings of three pieces each: a dinner plate, a salad plate and a bowl. No mugs or serving platters are included.
- Are the glazes safe for food?
- The glazes are lead-free, cadmium-free and BPA-free, so they are food-grade safe for everyday family meals.
- How does stoneware compare with porcelain?
- Stoneware is thicker, heavier and more forgiving of knocks. Porcelain is lighter and finer but chips more easily in daily use.
- Will the speckled pattern vary between pieces?
- Yes. The long firing and speckled glaze give each piece a slightly different finish, so expect small variations across the set.
