Formal Easter Table in Silver and White

Pat was tired of doing "cute Bunny" tables and decided on a more formal look for our last Easter season table. She chose Noritake's "Crestwood Platinum" fine china because of the thick platinum ring around the plate and paired it with Wallace's "20th Century Baroque" silverplate flatware.

Pat placed mercury glass egg finials on both side of a silver candle holder and small bouquets of roses for the centerpiece






Although Pat did not use a cup and saucer, I wanted to show you the traditional footed Noritake style in this pattern

Another piece that Pat didn't use, this is the Luncheon/Accent plate in the pattern




We rarely have any mercury glass on a tablescape (Pat hates it) but we found these glass egg finials two years ago on the sale shelf at Pier 1 and bought them since they were so cheap. Finally, here they are.....




One last look from the other end of the table
Where it came from:
Dinnerware - "Crestwood Platinum" by Noritake from Wayfair last year
Silver Flatware - "20th Century Baroque" by Wallace from Horchow's two years ago
Silver trimmed Glassware - from Pier 1 last year
Gray Napkins - from Linentable.com (a fantastic place for inexpensive table linen)
White Napkin Overlay - a gift from Pat
Napkin Rings - from Pier 1 several years ago
Mercury Glass Egg Finials - from Pier 1 two years ago (but available again this year)
White Glass Vases - from Tuesday Morning several years ago
Silver Candle Holder - from Pat's collection

  1. What a beautiful, elegant table! It's actually perfect for any time of year, but those mercury glass egg finials make it Easter-appropriate. Happy Easter to you and yours!

  2. This is absolutely stunningly beautiful! I'm not a big fan of Mercury glass either but in this setting it looks good and doesn't outshine the silver rims of the china and stemware. Will this be your tablescape for Easter Sunday? Enjoy and thank you for all of your wonderful settings with helpful narratives.
