Embrace the subdued beauty of winter’s chill with a polished winter tablescape brightened by a lavish bouquet of purple and white blooms.
SUBTLE ROMANCE
Cast January’s gray shades in a new light, pairing them with luminous silver for an elegant presentation. A floral-embossed tablecloth makes a fitting backdrop, while a runner and matching napkins in a vintage jacquard print coalesce in a soft pattern play. Tinted glassware and mismatched Champagne flutes round out the look.
A FINE FLOURISH
Creamy bone china edged in steel hues and dainty buds nods to the bright flowers that enliven the scene. A footed planter spills forth a spectrum of purple that includes tulips, lilies, ranunculus, carnations, spray roses, scabiosa, and hyacinth, along with Brunia, pussy willow, and dusty miller. Scalloped place mats call to mind snowflakes, as swirled embellishments on napkin rings and flatware reflect flurries dancing on blustery breezes.
