Spode Woodland Hunting Dogs

For Marty's Table Top Tuesday, I'm showing a coffee-table-set-for-one featuring my sister's Spode Woodland Hunting Dogs pattern.  She graciously allowed me to play with her dishes and other items during my recent visit to Nashville.

My sister bought these dishes a few years ago when we were all visiting my parents in Little Rock, at one of our favorite shops there, Fifth Season.  She has dinner plates, salad plates, and mugs in the golden retriever and English springer spaniel designs.  Here's a closer look at the placesetting, which includes her silverplate from Grandma Rachel, Reed and Barton's Louis XVI.

Here's an even closer look at the English springer spaniel salad plate, followed by one of the golden retriever dinner plate:

The green napkin folded into the mug highlights the green in the center of the design.

And, for all you dog lovers out there, here's a closer look at the golden retriever figure that usually stands on the hearth, with a gerbera daisy tucked into his basket.

Here's one more look at the setting.

Thanks for visiting, and please also stop by Marty's A Stroll Thru Life to see some inspiring table tops.
