Telling a Cutlery Story..

I know I have a problem with Anthropologie.

The reason I love this store so

is because they aren't selling trends as much as

 treasures.

When I was young and broke and a hopeless optimist 

I had many friends and often threw informal, spur-of-the-moment soirees.

I had the style of a gypsy and everything was colorful and mismatched,

but somehow it all worked anyhow.

Cutlery was no exception.

The patina of old silver is too beautiful to resist and 

quite a collection of flea market bundles found their way home..

Meaning no two were the same :)

A roommate inherited this when I went adventuring 

but every so often when setting the table I find myself wishing for those odd forks and spoons..

so am delighted to see this over at Anthropologie:

Rediscovered Flatware

"antique and vintage delightfully mismatched sets of five"

"each place setting is completely unique"

see? They GET it.
