Lenox Butterfly Meadow 18-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 6

Amazon.com Review

 

Emblazoned with a sweet butterfly and wildflower motif, this summery dinnerware pattern is versatile enough to serve everyday meals or stand in for special occasion dining. Perfect for an average family, this set packs six 10-3/4-inch dinner plates, six 9-inch salad plates, and six 12-ounce mugs. Made of fine china, the dinnerware has a beautiful reflective quality to its ivory base color yet is surprisingly durable enough to go from the freezer to the oven to the table without damaging and is also safe for the microwave and dishwasher.

Based on designs from Lenox artist Louise de Luyer, Butterfly Meadow's dinnerware set mixes and matches a variety of meadow scenes, each featuring a species of butterfly with a different bloom. Among the pictured butterfly varieties, there are colorful Swallowtails, Monarchs, Eastern-Tailed Blues, Orange Sulphers, and even a dragonfly here and there. Avid gardeners will also be able to spot favorite flowers, which range from morning glories to lilacs to tiger lilies. Each scene is a bit different from the next, adding to the charm of this country-style dinnerware. Graceful scalloped and ridged edges on plates and mugs lend an additional feeling of innocence to this pattern. This dinnerware set matches other crystal, flatware, and serving pieces in fine china and sculpted metal within Lenox's Butterfly Meadow collection. --Cristina Vaamonde

My husband, who is very picky, is very pleased with craftsmanship and artistry of these pieces.
" Have been enjoying the use of these dishes. Delivery was VERY prompt and everything was well packaged. Thanks. "The cups are actually big enough to use!

I have no idea why, but I decided I wanted a bit of English Garden and these fit the bill. These are just frilly enough to satisfy the girl in me and just simple enough to not overwhelm the practical in me. The scalloped edges were a surprise but they do just fine in my dishwasher. I use the desert plates for most of my meals because they are the perfect size for smaller meals. I'm accustomed to everything coming in place settings of 4 or 8 so having a place setting for 6 is a big plus.

I love that I can mix these with my white dishes if I need more place settings. They are heavy enough I feel secure handling them.

If you have a yearning for something a little pretty but are afraid a man would be put out be these, don't be. They look delicate but they are not. This is a sturdy set of dishes and can be used day in and day out. They aren't so frilly a man would be embarrassed to be seen using them." "My MIL has this and love the feeling of holding this set. It doesn't get scratch easily and looks like an expensive set!

It's a must buy... I just hope they have it in different designs!" These plates are so awesome. Aside from the fact that each plate features a different flower and butterfly, these dishes are elegant, tough, and great for any purpose. We use our dishes daily and even my husband thought they looked great. They are not has thick/heavy as some other dinnerware, but they also do not feel fragile, like I thought they would. I wash mine in the dishwasher and they clean well. A splendid set for a great price. Trust me, I looked all around and THANK GOD I searched on amazon because I was ready to buy this set for almost $312 from Macys. Amazon is also slightly cheaper than ebay! What a deal. This plates are great for just special occasion use or everyday. They are bright, fun, and extremely elegant.

A very busy and tedious day of work in the office can be so wearing and the best way to recapture the littlest energy left is to have a wonderful, well-though dinner. And how do you do that Perhaps, a very elegant yet less expensive dinnerware set would help. Here's how:

You usually don't just lie on the bed after a very stressful work in the office nor go for a quick and cheap burger from a fast food chain. What you want is a very revitalizing and healthy food before you retire for the day. Well, you probably have read a book or two about healthy vegetables and how to cut down on carbohydrates and less calorie intake. What you need to focus on now is how you are going to make the presentation more engaging to make it look like you are dining in a first class restaurant, the only difference is  you're home.

All these do not happen with a snap of a finger. You need to invest on a dinnerware set that may help you do the trick. You can check around the market for any available dinnerware set that could range from a cheap plastic dinnerware to expensive glass ones. But don't fret, you can always choose which of these fit your lifestyle.

You really have to be smart when choosing your dinner ware set by considering the purpose of buying it, durability and even defects however, the most that would need thinking would be the budget. Is the money worth the item itself.

There are a lots of cheap dinner ware set in the market today such as plastic but you might want to think twice before buying this kind because it may not last long. You would not want to buy a new one maybe after a couple of month's use. I?m sure you want something that would last almost a lifetime. It not only saves you money, it also keeps the premium of memories together with loved ones and families.

On the other hand, dinnerware set made of glass may be expensive but they certainly look luxurious and classy. You can also check around the market using the Internet or walk around the malls to find a dinnerware set made of glass that could do the same but is not that expensive.

Dinnerware set could range from $29.00 to $100.00. You can choose from crystal materials, porcelain, stone and ivory with a gold trim. These dinner ware set would be perfect for occasions like Mother's Day, Graduations, Birthdays, Thanks Giving, Wedding and others. But you do not need to wait for special occasions to occur, these dinner ware would surely ease out your tension after a hard day's work.

It would be interesting to know that there are also personalized dinnerware sets called monogrammed dinner ware where you can have your name printed on the plate. For those who value respect and privacy a lot, there is a term called ID with your dinnerware set where you can have your initials or names printed on your glasses and cups.

If ever you choose to buy glass dinnerware set, you just have to be extra careful when using it since they break easily. You also need to consider the materials you will use in cleaning it. I suggest using a sponge in cleaning it instead of a scouring pad since it would eventually wear off the design.

I hope these tips have helped you pick your dinnerware set wisely. But remember, whatever you choose whether plain plastic or elegant glassware make sure you pick the one that fits your lifestyle. Pick the one that will surely make your dinner more engaging for yourself, family or friends for special occasions or just a regular dinner at home.

I received a 65 piece porcelain dinnerware set as a wedding present. The brand is "Randa Home Collection."

Unfortunately, I have no use for china at this stage in my life and nowhere to store it. I also can not find any stores that sell this particular brand so that I can return it, and can not even find anything about this brand on Google or Yahoo!. I do not believe this is an antique set. Does anybody know anything about this brand and what I could possibly do to return or sell the set?

Pose a question to the giver. Ask where they found it, as it's a lovely set and you would like to get complimentary pieces. They will be happy you like it, yet not know when you return it.
