Dining Table Styling

The table is where guests spend most of an evening, so we style it as a setting of its own. In a terracotta courtyard under olive trees, a long table is dressed in dusty pink linen, with orchids, anthuriums, tall candles and gold-rimmed plates.

Indoors, the table follows the occasion: silver candelabras and domes of blush roses along a banquet table, dahlias and roses between gold candlesticks for a dinner, or deep red roses, grapes and figs around tiered cakes.

Desserts get a table of their own: macaron towers, fruit tarts and berry cakes on stands among hydrangeas, roses and apples, lit by lanterns at dusk. At the entrance, a round table of blue hydrangeas in celadon vases greets guests.
