Haviland C. Parlon Jardin de Louise Dinnerware

The green and turquoise hues of the Jardin de Louise dinnerware collection by Haviland C. Parlon are adorned with gray as a reminder of the gray pencil line of a drawing, when it is only a sketch. Gold gives structure to the design and bring a touch of light on the leaves, like the first sunbeams of spring. The design remains straightforward in its appearance, drawn as a radiating pattern of thin lines with subtle color variations. The figurative reference to nature is shown by the leaves drawn on the top of the lines which turn into stems.
