This setting is gorgeous. It has a lot of weight to it. Just beautiful. I came across it and saw that it matched a Costa Nova pitcher that I already had from the Brisa collection in the Sal colour/pattern. And I was smitten. (Based on the pictures, I had thought the mugs would be a bit smaller, and I had been looking forward to that as I prefer a smaller mug. However, this is a full-sized mug. But that's just fine.) The unique shape of the stoneware really complements the colour and pattern. I will soon be purchasing the matching serving bowl.
