Victorian Dinner Party #9

The coffee was served in this demi-tasse set, given to me by a dear friend about 20 years or so ago. I think this is the first time that I have used it. Its black and white with gold pattern was the perfect accompaniment to the table setting. Some things are just meant to be.

 

Out of the blue, M. offered me these tiny gold spoons, exactly the right size for the cup and saucer's diminutive proportions. The camel at the top of the spoon works well with the Victorian theme, as the Victorians were great travelers to exotic places.
