Why we love this deal

If the Instagram age has proven anything, it's that you "eat with your eyes first." Restaurants will sometimes adjust their lighting just to make the establishment better suited for taking pictures. And while lighting and filters can make food pop, we believe that the best way to present a meal you've worked for hours on is by framing it on a charming piece of flatware. 

The $80 Malacasa 12-Piece Stoneware Dinnerware Set is on sale at Amazon for just $56 with Prime, and it's a great way to showcase culinary masterpieces. It's available at a 30% discount, but only for a limited time. If you're not a Prime member already, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial or just $14.99 per month. Not only will it unlock this special deal, but you'll also get access to other perks like fast shipping, Prime Video, Prime Gaming, and more.

Why do shoppers love it?

When it comes to making your food truly pop in front of diners, it helps to showcase it on a white plate that makes its colors stand out. There's a reason fancy restaurants opt for using white or black dinnerware: they make dishes look like works of art.

Even if you're not looking for photo-friendly plates and bowls, this set is everything you want a set of dinnerware to be. The ceramic coating of every piece is fired at a whopping 2,552 degrees Fahrenheit, which makes it stand up to multiple levels of heat and makes it far more resistant to cracks than the cheap alternatives. The patented Glidecoat finish provides a smooth and shiny surface that will showcase whatever you serve on it. 

The white color with faint black speckling is reminiscent of a dinnerware brand that's popular with restaurateurs, only at a fraction of the cost. When you see a plate up close, you'll see why its modern aesthetic is such a hit with shoppers.

"They have a beautiful minimalist design that looks elegant on any table," one shopper said. "They’re lightweight but still feel sturdy and well-made. Perfect for everyday use or when you want your table to look stylish without being too much."

Details to know

• Set includes: four 10.2-inch dinner plates, four 8.2-inch dinner plates, and four 5.8-inch bowls.
• Materials: Stoneware. 
• Is the set dishwasher safe? Yes.

Aside from being elegant and photo-friendly, these plates and bowls are unfathomably durable. They're dishwasher-, microwave-, and even freezer-safe. Malacasa also claims that the set is oven-safe, but I would recommend caution there. If you place them in a low oven around 200 degrees Fahrenheit, things should be fine. But I advise going higher than that, though, I wouldn't know why you'd want to anyway.
