There's Alot to Offer Your Table with the Hemisphere Limoges Porcelain Collection by J.L. Coquet

In my opinion, simplicity is best, especially when it comes to selecting fine china. It is like the little black dress of tabletops. You can change the whole look of the china just by adding accessories or accent pieces; something as little as a napkin or glass. It is very versatile; you can make it formal one day then casual the next. This is why I love the Hemisphere Collection by J.L. Coquet, a French manufacturer of Limoges porcelain.

The Hemisphere Collection is simply white porcelain that is enhanced by its texture and its rim, which comes in many different colors. One can choose from the Hemisphere Cream, Matte Gold, Matte Platinum, or White; all of which are simple yet elegant. If you are interested in something more unique or ornate, I suggest looking at Hemisphere's Transat or Gold Stripe pattern.

The dinnerware in this collection is great, however, my favorite part of the Hemisphere collection is the service pieces and the simple accent pieces of the dinnerware. The rim soup plate comes with a lid which adds a lot to the presentation and also to the bowl's function by keeping the food hot. The service pieces are really spice up this collection's simple look, making it more unique and avant-garde. Some of the pieces, like the teapot or the creamer, separate themselves with their unique form and shape. Other pieces, like the sugar bowl and another teapot appear classical in style except they have interesting metal accents as handles. In J.L. Coquet's Hemisphere Limoges Porcelain collection it's all in the delicate details. Click here to check out all of J.L. Coquet's Collection available at Sallie Home.
