Mixes and matches well with other patterns from same era (1910's), such as Tiffany's San Lorenzo, Wallace's Dauphine, Gorham's Etruscan, Whiting's, Mandarin, International's Trianon, and Shreve's Adam., For china, I suggest that you use one of these Lenox patterns<:: Old Colonial or Buchanan.F Hodgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00022998493077615581noreply@blogger.com
