Saturday I made another tablescape using the floral arrangement I used in the office lunch tablescape Friday. HERE I like getting double duty out of the centerpieces whenever I can.
When fall comes, I like getting out my French orange hand-painted fish plates. It just seems the right time of year for them with all the oranges and chocolate colors of the season.
I love the pairing of two different generations of china. Here we have the new Jaune de Chrome Tortoise Gold Encrusted charger paired with the antique French Limoges hand-painted fish on Coronet blanks by French artist Puvis. The joining of these two worlds is awesome. I am using the same products as in Friday's lunch:
Placemats: Copperworx
Flatware: Vietri's Alladin Tortoise Brilliant
Dinner plates: Vintage 1920 L. Bernardaud
I switched out the napkins to Martha Stewart peach hemstitched ones and changed the napkin rings to a Kim Seybert peachy/orange beaded one.
Same stemware: Vintage Indiana Glass's Mt. Vernon on the left and new Yurana Designs amber button on the right.
Another look from an angle.
Here you can see the centerpiece used in the office lunch.
My preference is peach roses over red ones any day.
Lovely bronze Mum.
Here she is for her portrait.

Here's another pretty face.
