Beautiful dishes - in some light and photos, they look black. They are not black. They are a deep beautiful dark purple. Love the design; very classy dinnerware

Beautiful, sturdy, well packaged - all arrived in perfect condition. This is extremely good quality porcelain dinnerware.

Beautiful set, although the color is darker in the images. Ordered the matching serving set.

Beautiful set, will order more

So thrilled with this set. The color is gorgeous and beautifully made. The quality is fantastic as is to be expected from any Lenox product. It does really well in the microwave the couple of times I've used it there. Also does really well in the dishwasher and more importantly, because of the quality, the color has not faded! Absolutely thrilled with this set and wish I could buy more of the plates alone.
