Gibson Home Kenwood Shores 12-Piece Hand-Painted Stoneware Dinnerware Set - Blue Stripe, Service for 4
Gibson Home Kenwood Shores 12-Piece Hand-Painted Stoneware Dinnerware Set
Hand-painted means every plate is slightly different, and that is the entire point. The Gibson Home Kenwood Shores set carries loose blue brushstroke stripes over an earthy stoneware body - a coastal, casual, lived-in look that a machine-printed pattern cannot fake. Twelve pieces, service for four, microwave and dishwasher safe, and it arrives in a gift box.
What's Included
- 4 x dinner plates, 10.25 in
- 4 x dessert plates, 7.5 in
- 4 x cereal bowls, 5.5 in
Key Features
- Genuinely Hand Painted: Each piece is painted by hand, so the stripes vary slightly from plate to plate. Small variations are expected and intended - they are the reason the set looks like pottery and not like packaging.
- Coastal Blue on Earthy Stoneware: The blue brushstrokes over a warm, rich stoneware finish give you a beach-house look that still works in a city apartment.
- Microwave and Dishwasher Safe: Stated explicitly by Gibson. Hand-painted does not mean high-maintenance here.
- Service for 4 in 12 Pieces: Dinner plate, dessert plate and cereal bowl for four people - the classic, complete everyday configuration.
- Arrives in a Gift Box: It ships ready to give, which makes it an easy housewarming or wedding present.
- Durable Stoneware Body: Fired dense and hard, so it holds up to daily stacking, dishwashing and reheating.

Perfect For

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will every plate look exactly the same?
A: No, and that is deliberate. Each piece is hand painted, so the stripes vary in width, spacing and coverage. Gibson describes this as intended - it is the signature of the line, not a defect.
Q: Is it microwave and dishwasher safe?
A: Yes. Gibson states both explicitly for this set.
Q: How big is the dessert plate?
A: 7.5 inches. That is a true dessert or side plate, noticeably smaller than an 8.5 inch salad plate - worth knowing if you were expecting a full salad plate.
Q: Is there any metallic trim on it?
A: No. There is no gold, silver or metallic decoration anywhere on this set, which is why the microwave rating holds.
Q: Does it come in a gift box?
A: Yes, it ships in a gift box, so it is ready to give as-is.
Care & Use
Microwave and dishwasher safe per Gibson. Avoid thermal shock - do not move a piece straight from the freezer to a hot oven or run cold water on a hot plate.
Hand-painted decoration sits under the glaze, so it will not wash off; but abrasive scouring pads will dull any glaze over time. A sponge is all it needs.
Why Choose Gibson Home?
Gibson Overseas has supplied American tables since 1980. Kenwood Shores is one of their hand-painted lines - a level of finish work that usually pushes a dinnerware set into a much higher price bracket - and it still carries a full microwave and dishwasher rating plus Gibson's limited lifetime warranty.
