Plain - colored - Fresh - Just a little too heavy

This is already our second service mark of Arte Viva. Unlike the coffee service with poppy flowers motif includes this package in addition to the 6 coffee plates, cups and -untertassen also 6 large dinner plates and 6 soup plates. Together the brand are the sturdy design of porcelain and a translucent design on a white background. This gives the service a modern-looking touch. However, a drawback of strong material thickness is quite high weight, which may interfere with one or the other, especially in the thick-walled cups. This shortcoming on the other hand compensated by the insensitivity and unrestricted dishwasher suitability.

What the design GRAZIOSO particularly distinguished, for us the decisive criterion of choice is the incredibly subtle and simultaneously varied color schemes. Each part carries its own color: red, orange, yellow, green, dark blue, light blue. And the design is, on the otherwise white porcelain base, simply in a thin colored line at a short distance to the bigger picture and the top cup. Already in stacked form, this results in a colorful, fresh image. And if the sets are spread out on the table, you can enjoy one of the colorful spectrum. It is a matter of taste whether one puts together the sets in the respective same color or just about anything mixes colorful, which I personally find particularly appealing. A beautiful always new game with the colors.

Despite the impressive simplicity of the color lines but the idea is we come in between: If the line can not be applied a little wider? A clear answer is you probably will not find, since much indicates that with a broader and thus more striking design of colored lines the ease of appearance could be lost. And so then predominates but our satisfaction with this type of design. Only the light blue unconvinced quite. Because that is so pale that you can see it easily. Perhaps an alternative color would have been better.

What else can you say in addition: The dinner plates have a larger than average diameter. This is handy because you can use for all kinds of dishes so. The soup plates, however, are advised unusually small. For a soup the main meal is not really suitable. However, if you need a inserts or appetizer plates, it is ideal. Meanwhile, we have become accustomed to this delicate form and use them like. Another criticism alongside the somewhat excessive weight: Stacked show the plate laterally differently sized spacing, are so different heights issued. If you are single, does not fall on that, but it testifies to a not so high quality copies of the forms. Here ArteViva could still reloading.
