    Those are gorgeous, but this on is even nicer, imo!

    Both sets are lovely,but I don't think they are very good quality.
    Have you read some of the reviews ?

    Having just gone to look at them myself, I did drop down the page to the reviews, and by gum, I resisted adding them to the wish list very quickly. Lovely idea, poor execution. Thus not money saving or fun, so will have to look elsewhere. They would have driven the OH bonkers, but me and the kids would have had fun ! :D

    I would rather buy mismatched vintage cutlery, love all those old butter knives and bakelite handles etc.

    I just looked at the reviews and taken them off my wish list, how disappointing!

    I used to have some lovely old mismatched cutlery mostly bought from a house sale when an elderly neighbour died, favourites were big forks that were great for mixing, sadly lost most of it in a move :(
