Famiware Mercury Plates and Bowls Sets with Pasta Bowls Sets

The set serves four with a dinner plate, a salad plate, a bowl, and a pasta bowl for each place. When a fifth guest appears, the pasta bowls double as dinner plates: they are wide enough and deep enough to hold a full meal. The speckled glaze comes in four colors, from light khaki to deep forest.

The plates stack flat, and the bowls nest inside one another. Two plates high is the practical limit: the foot ring of the one above will leave a faint mark on the glaze below if you go higher. The pasta bowls nest as well, each one fitting neatly inside the next. The whole set occupies one open shelf, with space left for a serving piece.
