Churchill China Brook Pink 45-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 8

Richly detailed with a pastoral mood, the Churchill China Brook Pink dinnerware is durable enough for frequent use but dressed for entertaining. Executed in a dark pink, each piece features an ornate border of basket weave and grapevine clusters. Decorating the center of the plates and bowls are varying scenes of cottages and manor houses set amidst trees and flowing streams. Matching images are repeated on the service pieces and the exteriors of the teacups. Sculptural waves on the rims and bodies of the dinnerware catch the light and add a pleasing texture. Perfect for luncheon, dinners, and special occasions, this 45-piece collection includes eight place settings, each with a 10-inch dinner plate, an 8-inch salad plate, an 8-3/4-inch rimmed bowl, a 5-1/2-inch saucer, and an 8-ounce teacup. Rounding out the set, the five completer pieces include an oval platter, a vegetable bowl, a creamer, a sugar bowl, and a sugar bowl lid. The Brook Pink line is made from high-fired earthenware and has a chip-resistant glossy glaze over the transfer-printed pattern. Designed to withstand frequent use, it is safe in the microwave, freezer, and dishwasher. --Emily Bedard What\'s in the Box 8 place settings, 5 serving pieces.
