COLOURS
It should be noted that the porcelain is not white, but has a slight gray tinge and darker grain.
The lines at the edge are less intense, as the picture on Amazon suggests in color. Especially leaves the picture shows it as if the entire outer edge of the set was inked. This is not so - it is only a single thin line on the upper side of the plate, which makes the colors appear much paler. Unfortunately particular the bright blue stands out from the little white porcelain. Whether the corresponding discreet overall impression now like better or worse, is a matter of taste, but I personally would have me of brighter colors (or a service that looks like in the pictures ...) quite happy. (3/5 stars)
FORMS
The service is classic and down to earth in its forms, which I like very well. The 180ml mug as describing "extra large cup", however, is a bit too exaggerated. (3/5 stars)
PROCESSING
Here I really was not enthusiastic, but maybe I caught only a copy Sunday. Many of the parts have small inclusions, small and large stains, glaze fault or porcelain noses, even a cup at the edge - that I know in this form otherwise only of B-Ware. Most of these errors are not serious and do not limit the functionality of the services also, but who is bothered by such small quirks, is this service probably do not have much joy - especially for the price.
The dishes are dishwasher-compatible by the manufacturer. Whether the printing is actually to be seen. What makes me a little suspicious to the effect, is the glaze of the dishes that does not particularly sophisticated look at the fingernail test. I will complete this review in this regard.
Update September 2013: The service has now moved to the trash. A large dish is simply cracked in the dishwasher (washes at 40 ° C), with other dishes was of the color glaze for regular use no longer really much left and the service just looked more miserable. Dishwasher safe I know differently. :(
CONCLUSION:
From the design idea forth a pretty service that unfortunately less colorful fails as in the pictures and I could not convince high. Who more discreet colors are preferred, you do not mind to little quirks and the service does not want to get stuck in the dishwasher, it may be determined to have fun. As inexpensive but I do not personally feel it and would not suggest the purchase.
