Is it possible to buy just pasta bowls? Also, are they heavy?

They are a little heavy, but I like it , I bought the whole set, and one bowl was broken, but I decided to keep it. You'll like it, worth for that price.

We bought 2 sets of the 4 pieces. They are good quality and heavy. One bowl was broken when we received sets. Still kept and have liked.

Sorry, I don't even know if they make pasta bowls. I bought two sets with just the four usual pieces. They are a little heavy - stoneware. I like them very much. They are festive.

You can buy them as a set or individual pieces. It's an awsome piece, that's if you like a retro style kitchen. Also they are easy to assemble.

They are not as heavy as our Fiestaware, nor are they as durable. They are lighter than most stoneware-tupe sets I have owned in the past. They are beautiful.

Hello! I purchased mine ages ago, and still going strong. They are quite thick but not heavy. Have come in great use at our house.

They are not flimsy by any means. A good solid weight, but not heavy. Best parts, the lips for lifting and the silicone bottom keeps the bowls from slipping on granite countertops or any other smooth top. Love them...and they are pretty as well as functional. Although it says 3 bowl set, mine came with four.

Hi Merle, these bowls are big. They aren't individual salad bowls. They are more like a bowl you would toss a salad in. We really like the whole set of dishes we bought like this...

They aren't very heavy, but they certainly are not too light. I would say they are just normal weight for dishes. I love mine.

I really hadn't paid any attention to that until you asked the question. And happily, the answer is yes! There is a center circle on the bottom of the plate and the sides come up from there. You could easily serve pasta or something in a sauce on these plates. And the dinner plates are of very ample size. I hope I have been able to help you.

read Joan's comment,because before ordering,I looked everywhere. The only thing I can come up with,is that was on the package and I never bothered looking. Lesson learned. Though they are great bowls,as I wrote Joan,how come our country can not make them. Sorry.

They can be used in a microwave but they do get very hot, so I wouldn't do it often. Individually, the smallest one is light but as they graduate in size they are substantial for their size. When nested, they can be very heavy to move all together. But understand, I'm in my mid-60s and don't have the hand/arm strength I used to have. These bowls might not feel heavy to another person. I still love these bowls and use them for everything.

The are heavy ceramic/porcelain bowls. Very similar to what they use in Ghangis Grill.

The reason I bought these bowls was because the lightweight ones I had heated up to the point they were hard to handle when putting in Microwave for a minute or so. These bowls are the answer to me. While they heat up also, but not to the extent as my bowls that came in a dish set; I am much more comfortable with these. I live alone and cook for myself. I use a bowl to scramble 2 eggs in it without having the contents fly all over the place, they are that large. I use the bowls to place enough left over hot dish in them to feed myself. They are definitely a good upgrade, I am totally satisfied with the purchase.

I dont believe they are but we sent them back asap. They are huge and heavy and something Fred Flinstone would use. Its not something I would use for a nice dinner or with the family and kids to clunky. If you like very large utensils they will be fine.

Yes, they are. I have another set that looks the same (and same brand) that I bought at Bed, Bath, and Beyond and those dishes are even heavier. The set from Amazon is not as heavy, but still heavier than many dishes. I love them though, they are very durable and look beautiful even after 12 years of daily use.

I would say more lightweight- I am surprised how much I like them. Not overly expensive but seem to be the right sizes for mixes and recipes. I have some stoneware bowls that weigh a ton- these are easy to manage.
