A beautiful,  classy set. Looks real. Made of lightweight metal. I especially appreciate that these are a dainty set, not huge or gaudy.  Others have stated that the set is too small. Yet I believe what makes the set look real is the fact that it is NOT large or gaudy.  Love love LOVE this set. And I did not receive any compensation for this review. Soooo tempted to purchase the dark blue set...
