À table!

Mark your calendars:

 

The meal as art.

This fall Le Musée de Sèvres will feature a one-of-a-kind exhibition, À TABLE! LE REPAS, TOUT UN ART, an ode to the very French arts de table - as well as to the artists and craftsmen who've been creating the porcelain of kings for centuries.

  

November 18, 2020 til May 16, 2021

As the date gets closer I will be posting more information

Tea for me

Égoïste means "selfish" and these individual teapots on a shelf at a Right Bank shop make one cup at a time.

Klimt cups

Gold-lined demi-tasse cups of artworks by Gustav Klimt in a Montmartre shop window.

Tea-totaler's lamp

A lamp inside a vintage clothing shop reminds me of something out of the "Mad Hatter Tea Party."

Ready for tea

Intimate salons de thé dot the city, where there will be specialty teas, homemade cakes, pastries and even refined lunches.
