If you would rather stand barefooted on the cool, textured tile and admire a crisp collection
than empty your purse for a pair of matching shoes
then you are in luck. Pear Tree Design and Antiques has received their shipment, including the most delightful blue and white porcelain.

lovely blue and white! I'll try to stop by next time I'm in the city!
Gorgeous!
Beautiful. I do adore Pear Tree Design and Antiques and my dear husband works right around the corner.
I think a lunch date might need to be scheduled and a trip there.
Those plates are stunning.

Oh how lovely!! I think just as well that I don't live near you to avoid the temptation!!
Oh,to go shoeless (not Joe, but, yes, from Hannibal, MO!) Just seeing your name in my Inbox makes me smile. Thank you, Mrs. Blandings. Road Trip!
Looks nice, but where is it? Please let us know what city/state.
Blue and white porcelain is so wonderfully timeless. I definitely need to add this to my list of places to visit next time I'm in KC.
Blue & White–love.
Ooh so lovely! I might need to head over there!
Thanks for the lovely description. Do you know whether that bottom plate is Chinese or Japanese?
Sorry for any confusion – Kansas City, MO.
Oh, beautiful!
Ever since you posted this series I have paged down to it again and again. That first picture of the two chairs and the blue platters on the wall – it is ethereal. The whites which are not white at all against the blue pottery, oh my my my. Takes my breath away – colors and textures that only time can produce.
The power of decorating is to some degree about novelity. If I were to copy this in one of my rooms, probably after awhile its power would decrease with familarity. I would hate to lose the quite wonder of that picture if I brought it to life in my home. But now I can visit it as often as I like on your website. Many thanks. Ann
