The most fashionable tables in the early American Republic were set with blue and white Canton ware, so called for the great Chinese trading port from which it came. Chinese blue and white porcelain was in demand well into the 19th century and has been part of the heritage of many American families. Blue Canton from Mottahedeh faithfully recaptures this centuries-old tradition and style.

With a spirit that recalls the vibrant beauty of the French countryside, batik sunflowers, rustic calico and vintage ticking stripes, Lauren Ralph Lauren's Villa Martine collection is delightfully executed in a palette of fresh red, white and blue for bucolic style that lends a summery mood to any décor.
