Mora Ceramic Large Pasta Bowls 30oz, Set of 4 - Serving, Salad, Dinner, etc Plate/Wide Bowl - Microwave, Oven, Dishwasher Safe Kitchen Dinnerware - Modern Porcelain Stoneware Dishes, Vanilla White

These pasta bowls- or platey-bowls - as they're called in our house are wonderful. We use these for most meals; a full main & two sides supper fits easily, or a very generous serving of soup or pasta. Large size, beautiful color, a nice weight to them, & they stack nicely in the cabinet. I purchased these 6mos ago, and they've been clanked around in the dish pan, sneaky licked by huge dogs, microwaved, stacked weird by the sink, shoved in the fridge- all manner of insults to dinnerware kind- and none have chipped, cracked or broken. They still look as pretty as they day we got them.

I currently have these pasta bowls which I use for everyday. They are a beautiful ,match to my Spode wildlife dinnerware. Perfect match of vanilla and brown. I also have the large 9 x 11 casserole which is in constant use. Easy to clean, doesn’t get stained by food, dishwasher safe, heavy and sturdy. Unless I drop it, it should last decades. Next pieces flat bottomed, straight rimmed plates, which I will use for baked fruit tarts or crostatas. Versatile simple beautiful functionality. Excellent dinnerware.

I had been searching for a beautiful pottery style, neutral, modern farmhouse set of dishes for years before I stumbled upon the Mora Hit Pause Collection. I have tried several styles and nothing ever had the look I was hoping for. When I found this collection in December 2022, I purchased 2 sets of the 10 inch dinner plates, 2 sets of the 7.8 inch plates, 3 sets of the 25 ounce bowls, 1 set of the 16 ounce latte mugs, and 1 set of the 12 ounce coffee mugs as a gift to myself! Though it was quite the investment to have twelve place settings of all but the mugs, it was totally worth it to me! These dishes are absolutely beautiful and are have a substantial weight to them. Though I am certain the colored sets are probably stunning also, I chose the vanilla white to coordinate with my white serving dishes that I already owned. I love the look, the feel, and their durability. We have used them daily since purchasing and they are put through the dishwasher daily. They have held up beautifully for over a year. I love them so much I asked for more for Christmas 2023 and now have 2 sets of the small dessert bowls and two sets of the 30 ounce pasta bowls. (I will be ordering a 3rd set of the pasta bowls for my upcoming birthday.)I don't have any cons to list concerning any of these sets in this collection. My husband is concerned that the weight of my collection could lend to our open shelving not holding up... but they are so beautiful I have to display them. I love these dishes.Something to note: The coffee mugs have a lighter bottom than the latte mugs. This is not a deal breaker for me, I like the slight variation, but might be an issue for some. The color on the bottom of the latte mugs actually matches the bottoms of all of the plates and bowls. The coffee mug bottoms are lighter with speckles... which is also beautiful.You will not regret this purchase!My only dilemma now is what to buy next from my wish list:set of cappuccino mugstravel coffee mugtravel tea mugsthe new beige boho dessert platesthe ramen bowlsthe salt and pepper cellars

We live in a house built over 100 years ago so space is limited. Maximizing necessity and space are crucial and we got it with these pasta bowls. I absolutely love the size, the weight and durability/use of them. The colors are exactly what I was looking for and they hit the spot in our little beach cottage :)

Every now and then both the seller and their product goes above and beyond. This is one of those times. I can't say enough good things about the many items I have gotten from Mora Ceramics, and the way they handle themselves as a seller.First off... I am clumsy and also have nerve damage in my hands that is just getting worse with age. I have 2 nice porcelain dinnerware sets that I am slowly but surely destroying over time with wear and tear and my own clumsiness. But I am no longer willing to pay the exorbitant prices that are being asked for a new, good-quality porcelain set only to end up destroying it as well over time. And I like some of the Melamine sets I was finding, but it's way overpriced too - especially considering the limitations with no microwaving and dishwasher 'top rack only' rules. So, I decided to switch back to stoneware.I found a beautiful Stoneware set with a pattern that I fell in love and am obsessed with - honeycombs! I love bees. (Elama Geometric Embossed Stoneware Honeycomb Pattern Tableware, Set, Ivory. I'm happy to say I got 2 sets for 8 settings, and now I see that it's sold out, so yay on the timing there!)This dinnerware set includes a standard-sized bowl and smaller plate for salad. So I was looking for serving dishes to go with the new set, but I also wanted a set of those cool, low-rimmed pasta dishes as well. I wanted something that would look really good color-wise with the new set - I am a fine artist and I get crazy with color not matching - but also something durable and very simple in design so as not to take away from the dinnerware, because (in my opinion) serving dishes are supposed to support it but not show it up.My table setting & accessories colors are off-white, tan, beige and bright Aqua as the highlight, all on a maple-colored Amish wood table. The Vanilla color with the warm brown bare clay areas in the Mora dishes turned out to be a fantastic color match to these dishes. (I will put up pics soon). It is just different enough to create some interest, but allows the set be the star without clashing.And the quality!! omg WOW.One of the fine art disciplines i have tried my now-failing hands at is ceramics. Not my most experienced area, but I loved it and I know enough about it to know how difficult it is to make things look simple & clean. Let me tell you - it is not easy to do that. These pieces are gorgeous and SO well made. I love the subtle speckling in the glaze and really like the bare clay areas. I am absolutely a "form follows function" artist and these fit the bill perfectly - those bare clay areas make for much more secure handling - so important with my questionable hand strength, which goes right back to my original reason for updating my dinnerware. The fact that they are so lovely as well is just icing on the cake.The company itself sent emails asking after my satisfaction, which was great. Not many of them do this on Amazon anymore.The packaging is EXCELLENT. It's very secure and it's totally obvious Mora spent some money on this, which is completely appreciated. Since I will more than likely being using most of these dishes for larger formal dinners, I plan to store the majority of the pieces I bought from them in the original packaging... that's how nice it is! And as it is Stoneware, I have no worries about using one or two pieces constantly and storing the rest. Yes, there will be some 'wear and tear' differences, but not in the severe way the fragile patterns wear away on the porcelain sets.I bought 2 sets of these to go with my 8-place settings, plus 2 sets of the "Large Serving Bowls Set of 2 Oval Platters in XL & L" to use as serving dishes. I plan to buy the pie pan very soon. I am all set for a gorgeous table setting this coming Turkey day - with the exception of the gravy boat. Oh, I bought one to be sure, because, well, have to.But I'd rather have one that goes with the Mora dishes! I have formally requested this from them, LOL... so, Pretty Please? Maybe a Gravy boat w/lid, Butter dish, Sugar & Creamer....? Oh man. I'd be in heaven :)By the way..... NO, I did not receive free stuff from them. I am writing this of my own volition.If you are on the fence, just buy it. You won't regret it.

The bowls are very sturdy. I did accidentally break one while putting it away in a cupboard (It fell on the floor). They have an email to contact them to buy a single bowl to replace the one I broke and they got back to me the same day. Overall, they are a great company to order from.

My new pasta bowls went into service right away. The colors are bright and attractive, the size is perfect and the price is a great value.

These plates are just as was described. To me they are perfect for both pasta and steak with vegetables. Washes and dries well. Very impressed with the quick delivery. Would recommend to others
