Ranmaru Japanese Stoneware 8 Place Tableware Settings 40 Pieces Black

Do you have any idea of what went into the making of those Chinese-made cups, plates, and bowls that you've been using? Can you say, "leachable lead and/or cadmium?" Don't you think that it would be wise to make a long-term investment in a set of beautiful, pre-Fukishima Japanese tableware for yourself and your family? Well... I have two boxes of Ranmaru Stoneware pieces that were purchased from Bullocks DECADES AGO, all of which seem to be brand new. (One box has been opened and the second is still sealed.) All pieces are,"Space Black," and are marked: "OVEN TO TABLE TO DISHWASHER MICROWAVE SAFE STONEWARE JAPAN" Each of the two (2) boxes is made up of: 4 Space Black cups = Total 8 Space Black cups 4 Space Black saucers = Total 8 Space Black saucers 4 Space Black bowls = Total 8 Space Black bowls 4 Space Black salad plates = Total 8 Space Black plates 4 Space Black dinner plates = Total 8 Space Black plates Again, that's 40 total pieces! dish dishes cup plate bowl china dinnerware dinner ware
