I have been wanting to work it the garden but I am afraid to go to the secret garden by myself and John is always working so I decided to do a tablescape instead. I am not sure how I ended up with the Sevres pieces. I guess thinking about my grand kids, I thought I would use cherubs and putti and most of the Sevres items have them so there it goes.
I even changed the buffet a bit to add the Sevres urns. We won the 2 bigger ones in an estate auction and the smaller ones, we bought from an antique store.
We bought this huge compote in an antique store too. It opens up into a big oval bowl.
Love all the details.
Hmmm, don't know why this loaded turned this way. It isn't on the original pic. Anyway, I bought these plates on clearance from the Noritake site at a big discount. I couldn't pass them out, lol.
I like the subtle dots on the dainty plates.
Napkin rings
A shell shaped Serves we also bought from an antique shop.
The pair of turquoise cherub candle holders I think are from Joss and Main.
Another large piece, a Serves bowl with gold ormolu.
I should have turned the urns cause they have a different hand painted designs on the other side.
We even have these 2 huge Sevres eggs, just sitting on the floor cause I don't have enough able space to put them, lol.
Thanks for stopping by and viewing! I accidentally posted this prematurely but now it is finally done with minimal description. We have other Serves pieces around the house but I did not want to add them for fear of cluttering the table.
Thanks to these wonderful hostesses.

ReplyDeleteYour Svres pieces are all stunning Chris! You did wonderful purchasing them. A friend of mine just told me as she was so worried lately; that she has decided not to ever get worried, as soon as she would go shopping for something ' fine, European, amazing and antique, lol! I know it's made you feel better.
ReplyDeleteYour entire tablescape and changes are gorgeous my friend. I just bought an amazing cobalt blue compote from the antique shop today too and it's Murano crystal from Italy.
