a love for the old: pewter
Here, an antique pedestal table topped with some beautiful pewter pieces. To me pewter represents the old—a love for what was once before—so simple and timeless in design. Not too dissimilar to Italy. And, like Italy, pewter is versatile. Take pewter and 'match' it with more contemporary designs and you can't go wrong.
Pewter flatware mixed with a modern (nautical) themed place setting. I'm loving those faux bois plates.
Here, a beautiful mix of old and new candlesticks that would look so pretty on a table or mantel.
And, I leave you with a beautiful tablescape which reminds me of the idyllic Italian countryside. So, have you tried to incorporate any pewter in your home design? If not, would you?
Thank you again, Casey. We hope you're having a wonderful time!!

Great post Fran! Pewter and fall are a perfect pairing as fall does feel like we are stepping back in time. Love the mix of old and new.
Oh, to be in Italy right now....am quite jealous.
Love old pewter, too!
Let's try again. Casey, thanks for inviting Fran over to guest blog... I am a follower and fan of BOTH blogs!
Fran, I love the feel of weighty old pieces. They kind of make me wonder who from the past has held and admired them before me. Pewter is lovely, as was this guest post! See you on Green Street!
