Finally Fall !!!

Do you say Fall or Autumn?
A gold wire pumpkin with the faux fall leaves and glitter pumpkins
center the table on an antique cake stand!
Beaded fall leafed mat accents the centerpiece.
A close-up of the autumnal orange pumpkin and seasonal berries with leaves.
The burnt orange glass tall candle holder with the shades of orange to brown candle.
Flower crested pumpkin placed on the velvet and
silk styled table runner.
An orange place mat is basis for each setting on the crisp white linen tablecloth.
Now the beauty of Copeland Spode pattern Valencia orange for this fall theme. I love this pattern and was thrilled to find this set at the Antique Elegance Show in Richardson, Texas two weeks ago. It is very complete and its color is perfect for fall.
The grapes and leaves along with the textural basket weave scalloped rim are surrounded with three orange bands.
The shapely square salad is the dramatic piece
to show off the china.
Now here is the complete place setting for your enjoyment!
Fortunately, the new orange napkins(a great Home Goods find) with fall colored stripes is a great match with the placemat.
Gibson clear orange and silver flatware is new and a shiny surface.
An easy choice of tea or coffee with a sip of water!
Crystalleria Fratelli Fumo a lovely Italian goblet with a clear bowl, green balls and orange stem.
The shape and scallops of this cup and saucer gives dimension to the earthenware.
Dark wire pear shape votive with a amber glass insert will be lighted for ambiance.
My excitement of setting the table with this beauty of a cover vegetable tureen,
and two oval vegetable bowls.
The most shapely piece of this Copeland Spode 
pattern is the sauce boat.
Now the table is set and I can sit back and wait for the family to arrive for a festive fall dinner.

Hello Pam,
I'm back to answer your question about the teacup. They are a mis-matched set. The saucer is from another set of dishes called Staffordshire Engravings 17th Century and there is a mark on the cup but no name. It is a crest with a lion on either side holding flags. Sorry, that's all I can tell you about it. Enjoy your day.

Que bello todo color naranja para recibir el otoño, todo muy elegante y fino... te felicito por tan hermosa presentación de una época para mi maravillosa, me encanta el otoño.
Gracias por venir a Argentina el día del té desde mi humilde lugar, porque no tengo mucha vajilla antigua. Es un honor que me visiten amigas de otros paises, cuando nos separa el idioma.

Marigene said...

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous...love all the orange, especially the square plates. I have Valencia cream soup bowls in green/blue...they are on each side of the tureen in the first photo of this week's entry. I didn't know they came in orange...now I will have to see if I can find some! Those candlesticks are awesome.
Have a wonderful week, Pam...

Got My Reservations said...

This set of dishes is stunning! I don't have much orange in my collection because my couch is a bluish red and I've never been able to use orange. I'm in the process of changing my upholstery to more neutral colors so that I can use whatever I want on my table. It's funny how the tablescaping bug is driving all other decisions in my house. Totally love all of your pieces!

Jacqueline~Cabin and Cottage said...
