Noritake Crestwood Platinum - 50 piece set, service for eight

muy bien empacada y completa

The attention to details on the plates and their patterns is terrific. I also want to thank The company that is selling them in Canada. Thank you for your phone calls and follow up.

I finally found it after a lot of research and a few failures! I added some money to the budget and here is the new set on the table. Crestwood platinium is a very elegant collection, suitable for any season and a formal table. With a simple touch you discover the flawless finish! At the 50 pieces contained in the package you find that you have almost a complete service, starting from bread and butter plates to coffee cups. You can add pieces that you are missing and you can buy them separately whenever you want, pieces that are not absolutely necessary but elegantly complete a formal dinner. They are preferential! After several attempts to buy something cheap, beautiful and qualitative, I gave up. There is no such thing as cheap and good! I sent back a few sets because I wasn't satisfied with the quality. If you don't have a minimum budget of $300, forget about quality. Noritake is NORITAKE!!!

The set is amazing. It arrived fast! Amazing quality, sophisticate, elegant and stunning!

I have not actually used this crockery set yet, but I must say that I was very impressed with the packaging. I do not live in America, so I ordered it delivered to my shippers, who then air-freighted it to me (I advised them that it was fragile). I unpacked the box to find every single piece in perfect condition. Not a flaw, not a chip or crack. Each item was individually wrapped in tissue paper, with corrugated cardboard dividers and double walls of corrugated cardboard around the outer sides of the packing box. Well done! I am thrilled with this set -- it is lovely and elegant in appearance. I never intend it for everyday use, so the non-microwaveability of the metallic pattern does not bother me one tiny bit. A paper sticker on each item says they are made in Sri Lanka, but as the quality is just as it should be, this does not bother me either. The stickers come off easily -- no soaking and rubbing required. *Update* We have used this lovely crockery on several occasions -- 'special' and 'why not?' -- and I can stand by my initial satisfaction.
