   The whiskey glasses are very attractive, heavy on the bottom with a pretty design inside.

   I bought a few sets of these and the matching 14oz taller glasses. They’ve been great. The design is nice and simple and there is a good weight to each glass. They tend to get banged around and we still haven’t broken any. Highly recommended.

   This glass is great for everyday. It is heavy, dishwasher safe and it looks like expensive barware. The bottom resembles cracked ice and makes it very hard to tip over. I would not let kids use them but they are elegant enough for the adults. The unusual design makes it a pleasure to use. Would buy again and again.

   I love these rocks glasses. They’re nice and heavy and the grooves in their base give them a real classy look because of the internal reflections that creates. The first set I received contained one broken glass but Amazon was great about providing a free return and immediate shipment of a replacement set.

   The quality of Old Country Roses used to be excellent. In 2002-2003, they moved their production to Indonesia, and then to China. The quality has dropped substantially since then, and so have the prices. You get what you pay for.
   - China-made pieces are heavier and thicker
   - China-made pieces have less accurate gold-work
   If its any consolation, all the major brands of fine china are shifting production to Asia from England and Europe, with commensurate decreases in quality, and sometimes in price.

   I received as a gift, a set of four of these with 3 other plate sizes as well. It’s a very nice set for the money. I would have expected a better quality product but it is still a nice set. The china is not as thin as I would have expected, but again, for the price it is very nice. The pattern is classic and well done.

   One of the cups was broken and they are already shipping the replacement, no questions asked. That’s customer service I can get on board with. I have another tea set that was made in Japan and hand painted, but so far, I think this is the better set simply because the company stands behind their product.

   A-

   This is the best looking china I have ever owned!!! I have owned very expensive sets and none can compare to the look and feel of the Royal Doulton Old Country Rose collection. This is a must have for anyone looking for a classic set of china at a great price.

   It’s beautiful and the pattern matches all the other Old Country Roses items I’ve purchased, but it does not have the same quality of China. It is oven safe so maybe it’s intended to be thicker. Anyway, it’s a great deal for the price I paid. It was on sale and I got free shipping.

    My mom bought this item for me for Christmas because I own a collect of Old Country Rose dinnerware. We werte so dissappointed when it arrived because the tureen is extremely heavy. We began to look at the bottom of the dish, no clue where it was made. Finally there on the bottom of the box “Made in China”!!!. It does not have the English bone china quality. There is nothing on the web page telling us where it was made. We sent ours back.

    I ordered these as a Christmas present so we would finally have a complete set of glassware. They are beautiful–not too fancy and not too plain–just right. While they haven’t been used yet, I’ve only looked at them out of the box, they have a delicate feel, so I’m not sure how “hardy” they will be to constant use. I’m looking forward to using them and putting them out for dinner parties.

    I love drinking my morning orange juice from these delicate but not overly fragile glasses! My husband and I use them every day. We also have the 15-ounce beverage glasses, which we use for ice water, and the 13-ounce goblets for wine. The subtle pattern catches the light. Dishwasher safe, but use a rinse aid if you have hard water.

    Gracefully designed; thin but durable. A very good buy at the price. With increasing amounts of glassware being imported crom China, I like to stick with European glass-makers.

    This line of glassware is really beautiful in person. It’s simple but stunning at the same time. Has held up very well for two years now.

    I can only say that this was such a great deal!! This company is the greatest! I would buy from them again and again.

    I bought this set after Christmas. The price was better than any of the stores I checked. Everything arrived in great condition in a Royal Doulton box. My mom just gave me all of her OCR china. I notice that the roses, especially the yellow ones, on the china that I bought from Amazon are not nearly as detailed as the roses on her china. The roses on my mom’s china are smooth and the roses on the new china have a printed dot texture to them. Also the gold trim on my mom’s dishes is much larger than the trim on the new ones. I am unsure if the china that I bought from Amazon is real. I will not buy china here again.

    I am very pleased with the Royal Albert Dinnerware. Amazon’s price is very good, much better than the derpartment stores and the quality is very good also.
