A Go for the Gold Turkey Tablescape for Thanksgiving
I did this tablescape a some years ago and decided to post it again for new readers. I have had these small turkey tureens for a long time. I found them on Ebay and I finally bought the matching salad plates and dinner plates on Ebay too. I still need a few more of the tureens but one shows up only once or twice a year on Ebay so buying a full set will take some time. Unfortunately the gold color doesn’t photograph well. The dishes, tablecloth, and napkins are a warm gold color and the color gets washed out in some of these photos. This photo is actually the best representation of the color and it still isn’t completely accurate. I found the tablecloth and napkins on Amazon a few years ago and I was delighted when they came and matched the dishes perfectly.
The turkey tureens, salad plates, and dinner plates were all made by Bordallo Pinheiro in Portugal. I have several different patterns made by this company and I love the raised designs and the details.
The turkeys and acorns around the borders of these plates are perfect for the season.
These bronze hammered charger plates came from Williams Sonoma a few years ago. I really like the hammered design and they are a nice weight.
I bought this inexpensive set of gold flatware when I first started tablescaping. I can’t remember where it came from but I need to replace it with something of better quality eventually. (I have since bought a much nicer set.)
I’ve had these gold napkin rings for a long time. I can’t remember where they came from but it was probably Pier 1. The gold napkins came from Amazon several years ago.
I used these amber goblets on another Thanksgiving tablescape, you can see them here. I bought them at Pier 1 several years ago on sale. I love how tall they are, they will replace some that I bought several years ago that are much shorter. The brown goblet on the right was made by Lenox between 1966 and 1985. It was called Antique Brown. I bought them on Ebay several years ago.
I bought the metal leaf place card holder online several years ago, can’t remember where.
The matching candle holders came from Ebay also.
I can’t remember where I found this turkey centerpiece. I love the different textures and colors.
This is one of my favorite Thanksgiving tablescapes.
