Still regret for not having kept more than 6 of those Delft White Picture Frame Vases... They sold like hot cakes! BUT, I sure love to use them with my Table Setting, together with our silver Place Cards.
It was once again Pieter's turn for hosting a 3–course dinner at our home for his Monday Night Club.
We happened to have still some of our white azaleas and together with a sprig of Rosemary, they worked perfect.
Also my French Christofle silver knife rests were put to use.
I've almost sold out on my Spectrenoir... (click the hyperlink).
My extra long French Le Jacquard damask tablecloth with napkins work fine with the additional small oak table added on in the back.
Chargers are French Pillivuyt Sancerre, also available at Replacements.
Our dining room set is solid French oak and also the floor is solid oak planks.
But instead of the Delft White Picture Frame Vase I used a little perfume bottle with silver embellishment, a dear gift from our boss in Italy.
The soup spoons, as well as the dessert spoon are Alvin Bridal Rose (Sterling, 1903) and by now you all know that I love ROSES. Clicking the link you find more pieces by Replacements Ltd.
Our solid silver napkin rings we had made in Indonesia while we lived and worked there.
This Picture Frame Vase is holding 2 Ice Wing Narcissus.
Hope you enjoyed my Table Setting and thanks for your visit.

Prachtig Mariette, de gedekte tafel is een plaatje en ziet er zeer uitnodigend uit. Leuk die ingelijste vaasjes, het parfumflesje is ook een mooi alternatief.
ReplyDeleteFijn weekend, lieve groet
Prachtig hoe je de tafel gedekt hebt..
ReplyDeletemooie 'kleuren' en mooi zilverwerk en serviesgoed. Ik hou daar wel van..
Vind dit zo leuk, als er aandacht aan een tafel besteed is, tegenwoordig doen ze dat vaak niet meer zo, eerder met een place-mat voor de tv...
En ja, ik vind het leuk om de kleinzoon te leren dat de natuur mooi is, en ik leer hem ook dat als je bloempjes in de natuur plukt, je niet de hele plant kaal moet plukken, en dàt wat er blijft staan er ook nog een beetje fatsoenlijk uit moet zien..
En als er niet zo heel veel staat, je dan gewoon niets kan plukken.. Het is ook een leergierig manneke, een beetje hoog gevoelig, en dus zeer "natuur en buiten gericht'
Very pretty Mariette. I love pink and roses! Your tablecloth looks very much like one I have and love. I've never used knife rests, but they are lovely, and such a good idea. And I've never seen the picture vases, very unique and a charming addition to the table. I know you are having a busy spring, me too. But so blessed to have the health and strength to do all the things that there are to do. xo Deborah
