Noritake Polonaise. I've mentioned it in a few blog posts as the china used in the "Persuasion" TV movie (1996) at Kellynch Hall. But I was thinking about selling mine, and I took it out to have a look. I am REALLY torn...
The pattern is gorgeous. The gold trim...*sigh*
How could I even part with it? I have enough for two full place settings. And I got really lucky with the coffee and tea pots. It's a tough choice. Maybe I'll decide another time. ;-)
In other news, I have a new breakfast area table. Since my house is very French Country, my dark little missionary style table wasn't really cutting it:
I've had it for 15 years. It was originally orange wood, and I refinished it when I was going through my Brown/Cream/Blue Phase. But then I heard about Canadel, specifically their Champlain line, and I got to design the table of my dreams! And here is the end result:
DEFINITELY more farmhouse-y I'd say! And really lightens the whole room up. I'll never get tired of this one. Now I just need to convince my kids and Hubby that it is OK to eat on it every day! HAHA.
