Spode Delamere Bouquet and Betty

This week's table is another fun one - Pat set it using Spode's "Delamere Bouquet" and Betty Boop (yes, an odd combination but it works....)

The hemstitch lavender napkin is "tied" with a metal napkin ring

Flatware is sweet "April" silverplate by Wm Rogers & Son

I love the lavender floral design - so old fashion looking

Pat's "go to" glassware - inexpensive Dollar Tree goblets

Classic design for the cup and saucer but an interesting handle

You can't help loving Betty.....especially in her lavender dress and hat.

Spode Indian Tree Table

Many porcelain dinnerware manufacturers have produced their version of an "India[n] Tree" pattern over the years. My favorite is by Spode because of the vivid copper, rust, and amber/orange colors. Pat and I are lucky enough to own a complete set for eight. Today, she paired it with a more casual square copper charger.

The unique copper flatware is Italian "Rialto" by Ricci

In addition to pattern, another thing individual and unique to a manufacturer is the shape of the cup. This one is no exception.

We found these square copper chargers at Pier 1 years ago

Another Armani figurine from our Mother (I keep saying we inherited our collecting addiction from Mom. There wasn't a wall or spot in the house when we were growing up that didn't "store" or display something she collected....)
