Tablescape Tuesday – Simple Luncheon

Tablescape Tuesday is sponsored by Susan of Between Naps on the Porch.

Welcome to my table which is set for a luncheon of soup and sandwiches. We will have our soup from small bowls by Bordallo Pinheiro. They are set on small ivory embossed Queens Ware plates. The dinner plate is a cabbage leaf, also by Bordallo Pinheiro.

Soup is served from an ivory covered bowl in a pattern called "Fashion" by Knowles.

Should you desire a bit more seasoning, a divided green and white pear salt and pepper shakers are right at hand.



Our dessert plates are also embossed ivory.

The goblets are brown glass.

Cloth napkins in a floral pattern of deep pinks and green add color to setting.
The cloth placemats are oval with dainty cream on cream embroidery.


Since this is the fall harvest season the centerpiece is a large white ceramic pumpkin along with its smaller version. I put some dried hydrangeas and a colorful sprig in the larger pumpkin.
