Samoa Gold Band Dinnerware | A Simple Way to Celebrate Spring

Most dinnerware patterns I typically think of for my spring table are full of flowers and other busy patterns. This year, I found J.L. Coquet's Samoa Gold Band. The Samoa dinnerware collection is subtle yet embodies the lighthearted feel of spring. Most pieces from this collection have a simple gold band accent. The uniqueness comes from the shape of each plate, bowl, and cup; each piece has a flowing scalloped rim. The tea cup and saucer are the best part of the collection. The cup has a vine-like handle coming off the body which is reminiscent of a buttercup. This cup stands out even more with the gold-banded saucer which are like the surrounding petals.

When looking for spring tableware, dinnerware, and home accessories remember they don't have to be busy and full of flower power; the beauty of spring is also in the shape, color, and feel of goods. To view more beautiful dinnerware by J. L. Coquet available at Sallie home, click here.

With the weather in the 50's this weekend I have my sights set on spring! And with spring comes thinking and planning for Cardinal's baseball, luncheons, Easter, Mother's Day and so on.

The Verdures dinnerware collection by Raynaud brings a fresh look to the table. Each piece of bone white porcelain is hand-painted with leaves, branches, and gold accents. There are so many diverse pieces in this collection, but i love the Chop Plate, Oval Platter, and the Breakfast Cup and Saucer. Each of these pieces have wonderful patterns which bring the essence of spring to the table and can be used as accent pieces when mixed with ordinary plain white china.
