I thought I heard birds singing, but it's just this table of Chelsea Bird from the Colonial Williamsburg Collection. Porcelain produced at Chelsea in London in the eighteenth century is regarded by many as the apex of English ceramic art. Among the most treasured pieces of Chelsea are those decorated in the workshop of James Giles with his birds of “distinctly disheveled appearance.” Our Chelsea Bird pattern has been adapted from Giles’ originals in the...Read more of post

The table is set for a beautiful Sunday Supper with our Bargello dinner service. This charming pattern has a contemporary vibrancy and versatility that belies its antique origins, adapted from English porcelain, circa 1810. Like the needlework for which it is named, it combines random dashes of red, green, blue, yellow, orange and magenta is a geometric patchwork enhanced by 22 carat gold lines.

We still have our New Year's resolution going, how about you? Eating healthy and serving it on a pretty plate helps! Chinoise Blue; this pattern is derived from 18th century Chinese Export porcelain. The simple leaf and ribbon borders in gold, cobalt and rust create a subtle yet elegant effect. This service is equally appropriate in a board room, formal dinner setting, or for a quiet evening at home.

Glowing against a starry sky of cobalt blue are golden butterflies signifying happiness. It became the personal dinner service of President ...Read more of post

Through a concept which complements itself in a harmonious way, this dreamlike tour through Vista Alegre porcelain and crystal pieces, enriching&...Read more of post

Got Thanksgiving dessert perfected, not too sweet, not too heavy; individual apple cranberry gazettes. Now we just have to figure out which china pattern to use; Chelsea Bird, Sacred Bird & Butterfly, or Duke of Gloucester?
