Made of durable stoneware, Winterberry Ruby holds up well to the demands of everyday holiday use. Each of the four deep bowls in this set hold three cups of soup or cereal, heats leftovers in the oven or microwave, stores ice cream in the freezer, and slips into the dishwasher for carefree cleanup, a definite convenience during the busy holiday season. Pfaltzgraff covers all its stoneware with a five-year warranty. --Ann Bieri
