We bought the Lastra collection a few years ago as a wedding gift to ourselves. Vietri has always been a favorite for special occasions but as everyday dishes, very hard to maintain. Cups and bowls easily streak from spoons. The dishes chip very easily and we’ve already replaced several mugs, dinner plates and bowls. Replacement dishes are quite expensive to replace. These get very very hot in the microwave so while they are microwave approved, I would not recommend. I only wash these by hand or via the delicate wash on the dishwasher and I always hand dry because of past chips. They are beautiful but I’ve had a lot of issues with the upkeep. When the time comes to replace (in several years), I will probably look elsewhere for an everyday set.
