I came across these on wisteria.com. Generally I'm not so keen on decorative items as artwork, but I really like the look and feel of the plates, bowls, and platters below.

Indigo hues, African textiles, and ceramics are all favorites of mine, so when I saw them wrapped up in one; I took it as a clear sign to buy.
Given they are far to pretty to cover up, I prefer them as decorative objects rather than serving pieces. They range in price from $119 - $139.












Love it, love it! The colors are fantastic. And, in a pinch, you can take art from mantel to dinner table.
I use vintage tin drink trays, each printed with U.S. states. You can see pics here. Again, great set.
