Victoriana

Victoriana


One of my favorite pieces is this Victorian Side Board with a vintage fashion plate window inset, which also plays off the painting displayed above. Displayed atop are a dragon themed Chinese oval shaped cashpot, Blue and White candlesticks and assorted Thai smoking pipes. NO...the pipes are unused! hehe...
Inset detail...which is actually a "fashion plate" from a magazine...

...and framed on the wall...

An unusual way to display a fashion plate, in a frame that is a TRAY!

A Blue and White Provencal Table Setting

My first posting shows a Blue and White table setting which features a Provencal table runner, Portuguese porcelain basket, Delft heart shaped boxes, Italian feance pottery rooster pitchers in basins, German porcelain shoes, Cobalt Glassware, Blue and White napkin rings and of course, Blue Willow dinnerware.
