Today, I’m using a rare pattern with the Ham and Egg design. Since we have a farm near the house, this is a pattern near and dear.
The table is set for a “Farmhouse” breakfast. I’m using:
Metal white lacy chargers (eBay)
Bordello Green cabbage plates (eBay)
Placemats (Old Farmer Almanac Store)
Flatware – First Love International (1937-73)
Franciscan Yellow Goblet and Sherbet (.50 each at Garage Sale)The chickens are made by Royal Copley. Pottery was sold in the “Five and Dime” stores in the 40’s and 50’s. The planters were used by florist for small arrangements.
Here’s another Royal Copley chick along with an egg scale. I love “General Store” type items. You can see this egg is a Large…and is exactly what the carton said. It really works!
The pottery bowl with the eggs is made by McCoy. It is called “Girl Watering Flowers”.
Every proper table needs a crumber! We found this set in a small shop in Leslie, Arkansas on one of our trips. It does have a monogram which happens to be my maiden name letter…SOLD! Gently scrape the crumbs off your table with the knife into the tray. Love it!
I folded a tea stained doily inside the pocket of a napkin. Placed the fork inside and used little metal chicks around the fork.
Thanks for visiting today. Come back and I may have actually cooked some “Ham and Eggs”!

what a great breakfast table. Bed and breakfasts should take note of your table for it would be perfect for a b and b!!!! Love those plates -- ham and eggs -- great!
That is a great table scape with so many gorgeous elements. I love the crumber it must be Victorian, those folks had an implement for everything under the sun. I just love it all.
Having grown up in the Blue Ridge mountains, I have a special place in my heart for that pottery! Your ham and eggs are so cute! I see that you also have some of the Peasant pattern...my favorite! It reminds me of my Quimper ware. Happy weekend!...hugs..Debbie
