Pretty but not up to Pfaltzgraff standards,

This review is from: Pfaltzgraff Winterberry Two-Tiered Server With 10 1/2-Inch And 8-Inch Plates And Gold Spacer With Handle (Kitchen)
I just ordered this two-tiered server to add to my Winterberry collection. It is very pretty from a distance, but on close examination the gold-toned center post pieces are a very yellowish color and not nearly as attractive as the ones previously included with 2-tiered servers and candy dishes from Pfaltzgraff. The shape of the handle, being round, also does not match my older candy dish which is triangular and a much more subtle gold tone.
That being said, I do love the Winterberry pattern and intend to keep the server as it is festive-looking and a nice addition to my collection. The stoneware is manufactured in China now rather than the USA and there are slight color variations in glaze from the older USA pieces. The white background is more grayish in the newer piece and the green is a deeper, darker shade than the earlier USA made pieces. The quality has improved from the first Chinese pieces I purchased, and is still not up to the quality of the USA earlier...Read more

Received it as a gift with some other Winterberry items and the pattern is just beautiful, the tiered plates look lovely on the table for dessert with petit fours and other smaller dessert items.
