I purchased this gorgeous set of china at an antique store in Huntsville, Alabama several years ago. The moment I saw their table loaded down with a service for 8 along with several serving pieces, I knew it was going home with me.
The pattern is Noritake Smilax (circa 1949-1951). The delicate flowers intertwined around the outside of the pieces with the gorgeous Spring time colors called to my soul!
The handblown Lenox crystal is pale yellow and is a perfect match for the china.
This fun little Easter basket with colored eggs was my mother's. She always put this out on her kitchen table in the Spring.
My great-aunt collected rabbits. This Mr. and Mrs. Rabbit was a gift from my great-uncle to her. I love showing them off!
I had been waiting to set this particular table. I've planned it in my mind a dozen times. I was very pleased with the results!
