Birds of America Tablescape

It's been ten or eleven years since we last used our National Audubon Society "Birds of America" accent/luncheon plates produced by Alfred Meakin so Pat thought it was about time to pull them out of storage and set a table featuring these unique floral rimmed plates with a series of different birds.

The flatware is dark green "Sophia" by Hampton Forge Ltd. Company

Pier 1 produced these plates in several colors - this one is "Spice Route" ginger

The charger is a "Sage" Fiesta(ware) chop plate by Homer Laughlin

The glasses are Amber "Meadow" from Pier 1
