VERANDA MAGAZINE EDITORS USHER IN SPRING
LOBBY VIGNETTES THEMED “LE PRINTEMPS EN FÊTE”

Lunch in the Italian Garden
Lattice containers, antique sconces and a palette of spring green patterned fabrics were the perfect foil to a table set with Reed & Barton silver, Philippe Deshoulieres and Bernardaud dinnerware, Moser Crystal, Charlotte Moss salt cellars and glass hurricane by Barbara Barry for Wedgwood.

New York, NY — Three elegant lobby vignettes designed by Veranda magazine and sponsored by Noritake welcomed in the Spring 2008 New York Tabletop Market, which opened on April 9. The luscious and colorful settings celebrated the season with an inspiring mix of tableware paired with fresh new fabrics and tablecloths from JA Design Studio, China Seas and Quadrille.

Adding the finishing touches:
As the final vignette unfurls in the lobby, Robert DeCarlo, freelance designer of the installation project and Veranda Editor at-Large Carolyn Englefield discuss some of the key accessory placements.

Dinner on the Veranda
Dinner for eight, set with a wardrobe of china mixes and matches in endless combinations to always look smart. This inspired example includes Noritake, William Yeoward Crystal, Mottahedeh, Vera Wang for Wedgwood, Marc Jacobs for Waterford, Christofle Silver and Baccarat.
