First Easter Table 2026

Time to transition to our first Easter table and what dinnerware is most often associated with March and April tablescapes? The iconic and recognizable "Cabbage" by Bordallo-Pinheiro, The Portuguese manufacturer has been around since 1884 but "Cabbage" is their most popular pattern inspiring many knock-offs and copies (many very costly.) 

This very old flatware was our beloved Italian Mother's "reserve stuff" - she would use it when she ran out of the everyday flatware because friends and family always stopped by and "stayed for a meal" at our house. Mom cooked for an army....... 

This is the 12" charger plate

Where it came from:

Floral Place Mats - from Amazon this year

Dinnerware - "Cabbage" by Bordallo-Pinheiro from TJMaxx, Ross, eBay, Replacements,Ltd., and any other place we could find it over the years

Flatware - from our Mother's collection (she turned to it when company overflowed and she ran out of the everyday flatware) Pattern and source unknown.

Glassware - Pattern unknown but from Pier 1 years ago

Jeweled Carrot Napkin Rings - from Pier 1 eight or nine years ago

Centerpiece Candle Holders, Candles, Bunny, and Mushrooms - from TJMaxx, Michael's, and Pier 1
