Amazon.com Review Girasole means sunflower in Italian, and this dinnerware pattern joyously reflects its namesake. Bold yellow centers, reddish-orange stripes, green leaves and blue bands add up to a very cheerfully set table. Accessorizing the dinnerware is this set of two serving dishes, one a vegetable bowl and the other a platter. The deep bowl holds a generous amount of potatoes, salad, or vegetables, while the platter, which resembles a wide, shallow bowl, is ideal for juicy roasts or curried chicken infusing a bed of rice.
Made in Italy of chip-resistant ceramic, each Caleca piece is hand-painted by skilled artisans with glazes that meet US standards by being free of lead and cadmium. The hand-painting results in visible brush strokes with variations in tone that afford a casual, comfortable look. Chip-resistant and safe for the microwave and dishwasher, Caleca dinnerware celebrates the marriage of traditional Italian craftsmanship and modern design sensibilities. --Ann Bieri

This is a great set for entertaining or everyday use. Love the summery design. I also purchased the Turkey Buffet Platter.
