I've been on the hunt for vintage silver. It has been fun. I have enough to mix and match now but this is my favorite (well, at least today it is). It is "Century" by Holmes and Edwards, from the 20's. I especially like the vintage soup spoons.

ahh, the look of fall... pure joy~
Dearest Barbara,
Oh, reading your post makes me so happy! Fond memories from the cold winters in The Netherlands with soup and bread. So special and so comforting for the winter season. Enjoy it and your vintage silver makes for a very special setting. The rest of your autumn décor is likewise special.
Love to you,
Mariette
Wonderful warm and welcoming. I love the muted fall colors...your wall hanging become an important player in the design, too. Wonderful treasure. I wish that I could run next door and ask you photography questions all the time. Wish that you would consider adding photo tips to your own pics that you include in your blog posts....kind of a photography for dummies segments each time.. I'm pretty much at the point where I'd ask a question if I knew which question to ask. Thank you for inviting us to the table and for stopping by for a visit. Come any time. Cherry Kay
I love soup too! I think when the weather is cold it just screams comfort. Love your soup tureens..
Blessings My Friend,
We could eat soup every night for dinner when the weather is cool, too.
Beautiful table...love those green bowls!
Have a great weekend, Barbara.
I can't wait for it to turn cooler every year so I can start making soups and stew. Yummy! I love your vintage silver. It's a perfect touch.

Your table looks so pretty all set for Fall & ready for a steaming bowl of soup!
Your dough bowl centerpiece is wonderful.
Joe and I have been eating cabbage soup for 2 days. It is really good, loaded with veggues. I love making soups in the Fall and Winter. Love your soup bowls with the pedestals! SO pretty! XO, Pinky
Your tablescape is so pretty, Barbara. You are making me h ungry for soup right now, lol...Christine
Great post and lovely tablescape. How fun that you got the Pottery Barn "Curiosity Plates" as well. I can't wait to see what you do with them. Aren't they just the best?!
Hi Barbara,
love your fall themed tablescape with all the natural material. That looks inviting and cozy.
Best greetings, Johanna

What a wonderful tablescape! I love the vintage silver you're collecting as well as the china and goblets. This is just the perfect fall table, simple and elegant. The quilt in the background and the wooden bowl as a centerpiece finish it off to perfection. And if your green soup bowls go missing, you might look in a magpie's nest! ;-)
XO,
Sheila :-)

Very elegant and simple table. Love the soup bowls. soup is so perfect for Fall. Enjoy your week-end.
Gorgeous Barbara! Pretty photos too. I warn you now on the M&M's...be prepared to eat the entire BAG...I spied them at Walmart today and ran away.
Very pretty, Barbara, lovely Fall table. Love the soup bowls. Gorgeous color!
Barbara, your table is just devine.....love the mix of the antique and vintage silver flatware!! I am a nut for anything from the 1920'a.....roses and swags, but the more tailored patterns, also. Your soup bowls are certainly to be admired, and like you, I adore soup all the time, if it is homemade. Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving such a warm comment. I am your newest follower.
Thanks for loving my tablescape! You should see what I have planned for November!
Such a beautiful table! It looks like autumn as much as those soups would taste like autumn:)
I am so lucky to have my late mother in law's silverware...I am thinking I should be using it every day:)
Beautiful fall tablescape! Your photography is wonderful!

Hi Barbara...
My friend, you certainly set a beautiful autumn table! Mmmm...I love soup too and could eat it every day of the week! I love your place settings...the green soup bowls are beautiful! Ohhh yes...and I couldn't help but notice that gorgeous autumn leaf quilt hanging on the wall in the background! Absolutely gorgeous!!! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely autumn table and beautiful home with us!
Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit! Your sweet note just made my day, my friend! Thank you!
Warmest autumn wishes,
Chari
Barbara~ What a cozy setting and treat to eat soup out of your wonderful green bowls & with vintage spoons! Love your botanicals in your handsome dough bowl!
Oh I love your silverware, the handle is wonderful! Your soup bowls are a great color and I like the napkin laying in the dish under the bowl! It's all balanced so well and looks perfect in your room! Thanks for coming by my blog too!
Soup and your inviting tablescape... Makes me wish I were home tonight rather than one more night on the road. My post tonight mentioned wishing I could have met a few blogging friends on my recent trip "out West." You were the very first one who came to mind! Maybe someday...
Barbara, I just LOVE your photos. I try to analyze them and see what it is I am missing in my own, and for one thing the lighting is just beautiful. Please oh please share with me some photo wisdom!! Love your table too, by the way!!
