Lenox Brookdale Table

What started out as a simple gray and rose color themed table somehow turned into a sage and ivory one this week. After setting the table with a beautiful rose pattern plate, Pat went looking for a place mat that coordinated to add some impact. Well.....needless, to say, it turned out a bit different:

Not a rose in sight......nor any gray

The place setting "Brookdale" is just one in our collection of individual patterns that we own. It was produced by Lenox from 1963 through 1993.

You can see the raised hand-applied center of the flower
