Spode Delamere Bouquet Lavender and Purple Tablescape

This week's tablescape features lavender Spode "Delamere Bouquet" - it was produced for only a very short time and discontinued in 2016. 

The place setting started with two place mats - first a bold purple "Colorwave" mat by Noritake and then a very delicate vintage mat to add more interest.

Pat bought the purple flatware at Ikea in Sacramento years ago

Updated Green "Twisted Optic" Depression Glass Tablescape

Before we take a break on posting more Depression Glass tablescapes, Pat wanted to set one more table using our "Twisted Optic" dinnerware from the Imperial Glass Company. Manufactured around 1927 through 1930, it is still very popular and widely available. Over the years, we have mixed it with many other patterns of dinnerware and many other styles of settings (casual, modern, rustic, formal, etc.)

Pat started with a bright, bold place mat to set the tone of the table

Pink American Sweetheart Depression Glass Tablescape

Another tablescape featuring Depression Glass this week - this time Pat used American Sweetheart by the MacBeth-Evans Glass Company. Manufactured from 1930 to 1936, the pattern is a soft pink color. The dinnerware looks fragile and quite delicate but it is extraordinarily long lasting and strong as shown by how much of it is still available.

Pat started with another floral place mat that we found at Amazon - this one is slightly off-white with tones of pink.

The plates are scalloped and the pressed center design has been described as "intricate paisleys, scrolls and curlicue shapes" Shown here is a salad plate, dinner plate, and acting as the charger, a 12" salver.

The light pink and silver beaded napkin ring is from Pier 1 years ago

Flatware is "April" silverplate by Wm. Rogers & Son

The similar-in-shape glassware is an assortment of Depression Ware patterns

The very large centerpiece bowl is almost 14" across and is exceedingly heavy. Lined with both a sage and a chiffon napkin, it holds baby pink ornaments
