Astier de Villatte ceramics are entirely made by hand. Each piece has character. One of the things we love so much about it is the combination of a hint of a rustic element with an overall refined sensibility. These ceramics are made of a black earthenware and finished with porcelain. They are wonderful as everyday dishes- mixing beautifully with handblown glassware and a mix of Fog Linen napkins... and they also look great with cut glassware and all white linens. We have such an appreciation for things that can be used in different ways- and that bring beauty to daily life.

Sharing with you a beautiful color. My mom brought me this flower from her hollyhock plant the other night when she came for dinner. She brought it because she knows this is my favorite color/color combination. The softest pink with a hint of yellow at the center- and then of course in a little blue dish. I love it so... and it still looks fresh and beautiful. Thank you Mom <3

<3 Sock heaven. We have a new batch of cotton socks from Bonne Maison in the most fantastic colors. We love wearing these with Repettos- pairing interesting colors together. These would make a wonderful Mother's Day gift :)

Mother's Day gift ideas for those who love to cook <3 There are so many inspiring cookbooks this year- each giving unique perspectives and ideas for putting things together. We have really loved reading them ourselves and experimenting. The result has been many lovely dinners outside and talks about combinations of different ingredients and the best local produce from our favorite little markets. We also think putting together a package of beautiful wooden spoons with a napkin set or towel makes for a lovely gift. Also shown- tea packages from France, market baskets, dishes from Astier de Villatte and one of a series of John Derian mushroom plates.

Another piece from Vestiaire de Jeanne- a beautiful long sleeve silk dress. We love the way this falls- it fits oversized, but the silk follows the shape of the body- which makes it very elegant. It is a versatile piece that can be kept casual with a pair of flats or dressed up with a small heel. We are showing it here with the A Détacher Eleanor pumps in black suede, and we also love it with the Repetto jazz shoes in black <3
