6 shallow bowls (17cm wide), 6 side plates (21.5cm wide), 6 large plates (24cm), 4 clear beakers/cups (missing two, 7.5cm tall), a salt/pepper shaker (7cm, twist to dispense), a dressing dispenser (10.3cm tall, not sure how it works), a central tray (24.5cm wide) and the two large outer shells (which double up as salad bowls), with removable carry handle. 
Orb is apx 27cm wide x 23cm high.

Good used condition with some signs of use. 
No noticeable chips or cracks on the inner plastic/melamine. 
Small marks to the plastic plates/dishes from use.

The two outer shells are branded with ‘Guzzini, per alimeni, made in Italy’. 
Outer surfaces are good apart from one shell has a glued repaired vintage long crack, see pics.
The two outer tabs on the handle tuck outwards to form a ‘lock’, but it is best to hold the set from underneath.
