luxury as they offer takes on two motifs:

graphic stars and flowing florals.

The florals—one with a loose vine design

and another that layers faded peonies for a

saturated presentation—take inspiration

from East Asian hand-blocked batik prints.

Finished by hand, the versatile dinnerware

is enhanced by a mix of materials including

clear crystal and silver—and showcased by

textural indigo tablecloth fabric.

Fiery colors on centerpiece florals com-

plement the blue table setting as they evoke

the colors of maple leaves and nod to the

tree’s other tasteful contribution to the

menu—the syrup that adds a dazzling finish

to butternut squash gougères, layers a com-

plex note into an arugula salad, and brings a

delightful surprise to luscious waffle batter.

Autumn, you are sweet indeed. +

silver-plated chargers

and “Kings” flatware

hint at glamour and

contrast the indigo

“Seto Texture”

tablecloth. Flowers

in a fall palette

complement the

array of blues. Petite

waffles keep the

multicourse brunch

light and energizing.
