French Faience with Don Quixote

French Faience with Don Quixote

by Helen Kain | Apr 4, 2019 | Antiques, Blue, Green, Spring Tablescapes, Vintage china, Vintage glassware, White

The Ingenious Gentleman Sir Quixote of La Mancha is the full title of the Spanish novel by Miguel de Cervantes, but most of us know it simply as Don Quixote, the story of a delusional knight-errant who tilted at windmills. His faithful squire, Sancho Panza,...
Managing the Overblown Ego of the Parrot Tulip

Managing the Overblown Ego of the Parrot Tulip

by Helen Kain | Feb 14, 2019 | Accessories, Blue, Spring Tablescapes, Vintage china, White

The bouquet of icy white parrot tulips had exploded into a mass of crinoline-like blooms, tossing their elegant heads like a woman emerging from a high-end hair salon.  There was no ignoring them. They craved attention. They demanded attention. Something had to...

Paisley Linens with Vintage Faience and Pewter Soup Tureens

by Helen Kain | Aug 21, 2018 | Fall Tablescapes, Green, Grey and Pewter, Pink and Red, Summer Tablescapes, Vintage china, White, Yellow

Though it’s possible to get most fresh fruits and vegetables year-round now, there is something very special about fresh, local corn on the cob. At its peak, it’s tender, crunchy and dreamily creamy. It’s ridiculously inexpensive, too, begging to be...
Indian by Royal Doulton

Indian by Royal Doulton

by Helen Kain | Aug 19, 2018 | Fall Tablescapes, Green, Orange, Summer Tablescapes, Vintage china

Vintage octagonal plates in a rich palette of greens and deep oranges. Sounds like late summer would be the perfect time to give those an outing, doesn’t it? Indian by Royal Doulton swam into my consciousness as I was tracking down Nankin, a similar design...
