Noritake Colorwave Raspberry Covered Butter

I had been wanting to replace my 12 yr old dishes for a long time. They were Mikasa Garden Harvest. I was tired of all of the silverware marks left on them. I was really worried these new dishes would do the same. I saw that some people posted that they had that problem. I almost didn't buy them, but loved the color and style so much I had to give them a try. I'm so glad I did! No silverware marks on them! They are also heavy and fit better in my dishwasher! They are beautiful. I feel like I'm at a restaurant everyday when using them. Silverware marks, my thoughts..... When I got my Mikasa dishes I had also gotten new silverware. Both for wedding gifts. Maybe when the silverware is new it causes these marks. I continue to use the silverware (Stainless by Oneida) , which is not cheap silverware, with these new dishes! No silverware marks on these dishes! I have had these dishes for more than 4 months and use them everyday. Thanks Noritake for a great style of dishes. The mugs are a great size and I really like the salad plate. I use the salad plates very often! I truly love these dishes! Hears to the next 12 yrs with Noritake!!! I Hope to add more accent pieces at some point.
