Okay, so I finally caved and bought the Famiware Milkyway set after seeing it ALL over my feed. Here’s the real tea:
✨ The Good: These dishes are STUNNING. Like, ‘accidentally-host-dinner-parties-just-to-show-them-off’ stunning. The matte white with that reactive glaze gives major artisan vibes, and the weight? *Chef’s kiss*. They feel expensive (but not ‘hide-them-from-roommates’ expensive).
🛠 The Quirks: Yes, there are tiny glaze drips—but honestly? I’m into it. It’s like each piece has a lil’ personality. The unglazed bottoms weirdly grew on me too (feels ~authentic~). Stacking is easy, but heads up: the raw underside against the glossy top makes a weird sound when nesting. Not a dealbreaker, just… odd.
⚠️ The Not-So-Good: Two plates arrived with micro-chips (thanks, shipping gods). Also, saw complaints about chipping over time—mine are holding up after 3 months, but I’m babying them. Dishwasher hasn’t murdered them yet though!
💸 Verdict: If you want Insta-worthy, handmade-looking dishes that won’t bankrupt you? 100% yes. Just maybe order an extra bowl ‘cause… life happens. P.S. Their pasta bowls? *chef’s kiss*.
