Another international morning set to start your day, representing Italy, France, and New England. I enjoy curating all the stories into one collection. The different styles work together to create a one-of-a-kind vignette. Both useful and beautiful.

Included in this set:

• 2 Vintage Egg Cups (Coquetiers): They’re not marked, but their design and style say “Italy” to me. There are teeny tiny imperfections on the rim that have been there for the length of this ceramic’s story. Overall, in good vintage condition. I see them as egg cups, but they could serve condiments on your charcuterie board with their spoons.

• 2 Vintage Souvenir Spoons: Silver plate demitasse spoons with ornate designs of the Old Ironsides Frigate: Constitution. Both are marked “Geo. E. Homer, Boston.” Naturally patinated but can be polished to a brighter shine or left for a more storied look.

• 2 Vintage Small Plates: A pair of stainless steel plates that work perfectly under the egg cups. I love the combination of style and color between the ornate white ceramic cup and the matte, modern metal plate. The plates have all the patina you expect with vintage metalware. They have such a beautiful glow. Each measures 5 inches (12.5 cm)  in diameter.

• 2 Vintage Cotton Mouchoirs: Simple, eco-friendly cotton handkerchiefs that are ideal for a smaller version of a napkin. Repurposing vintage linens gives forgotten textiles a second life. They are durable enough to be washed and reused for years.

Please note that these are authentic vintage items with a past life, showing gentle signs of age that add to their character and charm.
