Blue Willow Divided Plates and Pewter

Last week, I shared a blue and white table in the dining room and I mentioned I had another one set up in the kitchen breakfast nook. Here is the other one, where I used mostly Blue Willow plates and accessories.
 

I also mixed and accessorized the table with pewter and pewter colored plate chargers. Aside from the blue and white, there is another theme going here. Have you noticed it? Think geometry!

The plate chargers are octagonal in shape. The white salt and pepper shakers are also octagonal.

 I won this Blue Willow toast rack from Ebay.
 The pewter wine glasses are only 6 sided, hexagon. I just noticed it now from the picture. I thought they were octagonal too. The bubble glass goblets are Polish pottery. I found them at a Polish pottery shop in the market place in Seattle.
 Does anybody know what that little gadget on the candle tray is for?
Blue and white ceramic napkin rings.
 Pewter flatware, not sure if they are hexagonal or octagonal. Need to check them later.
 Pewter apple and pear S & P shakers
 This miniature Red Cliff tureen is also octagonal in shape.


 The small teaspoons are from London. I saw them in the airport while on a stop over when we traveled in Europe this past fall.
 I love this little cute Blue Willow mortar and pestle.
 The plates are English made. I found them in an antique store in Destin. FL.

 For tea, I thought I would use my pewter set. I just love this pierced pewter tray! I do love the tea set too and I can serve coffee in the larger pot.

Thank you so much for your visits. I always appreciate it. I would like to thank the hostesses too. I truly appreciate all their efforts.

Hope you a grea day and GB everybody.

Oh...yeah, ok...I always say the same thing with your exquisite tables Chris! The pewter teaset is gorgeous. I've seen some around here, antique ones, but maybe I'll get a set too. The divided plates are lovely and of course I love your octogonal pewter chargers! The goblets are totally SWOONnnn!!!!!I'm making a Valentine's table with dinner plates and gorgeous tea cups I just found to match a teaset I already had, it was such a surprise! I love your table!
Hugs,
FABBY

Christine, I find your geometric themed table full of delights with the pewter details and the wonderful Blue Willow. I'd love to dine at this table.
I recently found a beautiful Blue Willow cheese or cake plate. My mother loved Blue Willow so it is a special pattern for me. Thanks for sharing your pretty table.

Christine, The divided willow plates look lovely on the octagon pewter chargers. All of the pewter and the blue and white accessories make for a gorgeous tablescape. I love the stemware too, very pretty.

Christine, this is gorgeous, and I love the geometry lesson you included along with the stunning blue and white! That toast rack is adorable! And the divided plates are both lovely and practical. I hadn't seen them before.

It's amazing what you can find in the airport gift shops! I don't think our airport here in Kansas City has anything nearly as pretty and interesting as those little spoons you found in London!

What amazing collections you have! I always marvel at the beautiful and often unique items you have besides the plates, bowls, cups, etc.

I REALLY like the divided plates. I don't know that those are so easy to find. They're cool!!!

I hope you have a great weekend planned. Take care!

Love the blue willow! But you know I adore blue and white!
