Summer Rose and Racine Tablescape

With the number of Covid-19 cases going up (instead of declining as we "open up") in our community, we are not sure how long we will be able to set tables, but for now, Pat came over and set another sweet table for the blog.




Flatware is "April" Silverplate by International Silver

Pat used Johnson Brothers "Rose Chintz" to add lots of color to the table



One of my very favorite vintage patterns - "Racine" by Hutschenreuther

We found these unusual sage green colored glass chargers at Pier 1 three or four years ago


Glassware is Marquis "Omega" by Waterford


Pat often uses a vase alone without flowers as the centerpiece if it is distinctive or uncommon. This vase measures 15" wide by 9" tall.

The small crystal vase is actually a vodka shooter repurposed - "Dublin" by Godinger


One last look
Where it came from:
Green Glass Charger - from Pier 1 three or four years ago
White Dinner and Bread/Butter Plate - "Racine" by Hutschenreuther (1900-1986)
Luncheon Plate, Bread/Butter Plate, and Small Vegetable Bowl - "Rose Chintz" by Johnson Brothers (1930-2003)
Glassware - Marquis "Omega" by Waterford (2000-2018)
Flatware - "April" Silverplate by International Silver Company
Small Crystal Flower Holder/Vase - "Dublin" Vodka Shooters by Godinger
Crystal Candle Holders - from our collection
Pink Centerpiece Vase - Pat purchased it two or three years ago from a local antique store

This week, we will be joining "Tablescape Thursday" at Between Naps on the Porch:  http://betweennapsontheporch.net/

  2. Oh, this one is so lovely! I've admired the "Rose Chintz" pattern for a while, but this is probably the prettiest setting with it I've seen. Thank you for sharing it.

  4. Beautiful and cheery, just what we need. Your Racine looks exactly like my "Ranson" by Haviland that I inherited. It was originally by Great-grandparents'. Thank you for creating this table. Stay well!

  6. Lovely table. I'm from NJ. I'm curious why would you be quarantined from your sister?

    1. Pat and I are both over 70 and are in a high risk category. We did not want to expose each other (and Pat's husband who is 80 years old) needlessly, so we made the decision that visiting in person should be put off until it is absolutely safe (and of course, California had a mandated "stay at home" order.) Once the State began to open up, we "rushed" to set up tablescaping dates together - Pat lives over a half hour away - so we plan our time. Staying at home for nearly two months has taught me how important it is to have family and friends in my life. Thank you for asking - please stay safe.
