Lenox Essex Table

Since our cousin Trev was here setting the table for our other blog (The Welcomed Guest - (Here)), he put together the Table for One. (Pat is out of town, so Trev generously "volunteered" to help out while she is gone.) He pulled some of our dishes and one of his and came up with this:

The dinnerware pattern is Maroon "Essex" by Lenox.

This is an "Essex" Service Plate.- from Trev's collection

The charger is "Mansfield" by Lenox

The thin, gold trim of the goblets (from Pier 1 two years ago) goes well with the dinnerware

Like Pat does often, Trev used Wedgwood "Edme" pieces because the color goes well with Lenox

Another one of our Mother's Armani figurines

Where it came from:
Charger - "Mansfield" by Lenox from Pat's daughter (she loaned eight of them to us several years ago and well, we still have them. Our bad.....)
Dinner Plate - "Essex"  Service plate by Lenox from Trev's collection (He bought 12 of them several years ago in Los Angles.)
Salad Plate and Bread/Butter Plate - also Maroon "Essex" by Lenox from our collection
Flatware - pattern unknown from eBay
Glassware - from Pier 1 two years ago
Vase, Candle Holders, and Salt and Pepper Shakers - "Edme" by Wedgwood from our collection
Silk Antique Roses - from Michael's
Figurine - by Armani from our Mother

Dinner With Esther Table

We couldn't resist doing another "Esther the Wonder Pig" table (see our other blog: The Welcomed Guest ) after finding a pink colored place setting from our collection of individual place settings. The color was perfect! Pretty and pink - just like Esther the Wonder Pig.....

The dinnerware is Dusty Rose "Versailles" by Fitz and Floyd

Flatware is satin finish "Kyoto" by Holister

The glass charger with gold is probably not your typical choice for the place setting - from Pier 1 Imports last year.

The glassware is another purchase from Pier 1 Imports. The touch of gold trim accents the gold trim on the dinnerware.

Who could resist this "lovely" pig planter full of silk roses? 

Where it came from:
Gold Charger - from Pier 1 Imports last year
Dinnerware - Dusty Rose "Versailles" by Fitz and Floyd (1984-1993) from our collection
Flatware - "Kyoto Frost" Satin finish by Holister from Wayfair two years ago
Gold Napkin Ring - from Bed, Bath, and Beyond several years ago
Gold trimmed Goblets - from Pier 1 Imports two years ago
Gold Candle Holders - from Pat's collection
Pig Flower Planter - by Continental Creations from eBay two or three years ago
Silk Roses - from Michael's
