Sir Lancelot’s Table After the Hunt 
If Lancelot had invited Queen Guinevere to tea after a day of hunting pheasant, he would have served lunch on black and white toile plates and featured a golden candelabrum for romantic light. The table would be draped in rich fabrics, with a wreath of pheasant feathers. And on each draped chair you would find a beautiful wild flower bouquet wrapped in a cornucopia of ribbons.

Marie Antoinette’s Masquerade Tea Party
Imagine a tea party put on by Marie herself in the over-the-top Rococo style of the 18th Century. The theme is carried out in gold and pastel pinks and blues. The table features a candelabrum fashioned with a parasol. Did I mention that Ms. Antoinette will be joining us?

Tea Room, Loire Valley, France
Nestled within an enchanted land of vineyards, floral gardens, and rolling green hills, and dotted with more than a thousand chateaux, sits a small cottage in the Loire Valley, and the site of a small grape-themed tea room. Overlooking a lovely French Garden filled with lavender, gardenia, wisteria, and hydrangea, this high-tea room provides a warm and serene environment to relax in.

Imagine your favorite beverage and enjoying high tea on a gold-rimmed and grape-leaved plate, set onto a gold-beaded charger, and matched with golden utensils.
