Mikasa French Countryside 18.10 Stainless Steel 45-Piece Flatware/Silverware Set

This is a classic, timeless design. They have a great weight, feel substantial while using and are comfortable. There's nothing worse than cheap, light-weight silverware with a skinny profile that presses into the sides of your fingers uncomfortably while in use. Also the finish stays nice and polished-looking coming out of dishwasher. I've owned this set for years and I purchased more for when I host.

As presented, the pieces are substantial in weight as desired. Colors as depicted on line did not quite meet expectations and are basically black and light brown without any orange tones, but for us that was ok. Overall very pleased with the purchase as they add a nice dimension to our daily living
