french blue

by Sharon Santoni
  No reason for this, except that sometimes it only takes a few minutes to put together a little vignette that looks pretty enough to share.  Antique coffee bowls, a blue soup tureen and a vintage jug.  Blue and white rarely fails to please!

Oh so pretty. Blue and white dishes set on antique linen and dressed with pale flowers – as the song lyrics go 'these are a few of my favourite things'.

I love those blue and white transferware footed latte / coffee bowls. You do not see that form in English transferware. Hope you are enjoying the brocantes! 🙂
