LCR West Hartford Welcomes the Fall Season

Fall is right around the corner, and at LCR West Hartford that means setting new fall tabletop! After days and nights spent eating al fresco over the summer, we are all ready to head back indoors to warmth and comfort food.


When designing our fall table we started with the china; Solonge by Gien. With a forest animal motif in warm browns, grays and hints of green, Solonge is reminiscent of the fall season. We then decided to keep the tabletop muted; instead of bringing out the greens and yellows as we could have easily done, we kept within a neutral palate, playing up those very browns and grays that you see on a cool, cloudy fall day. Because we were able to layer these tones, as well as utilize texture and shine through our accessories we kept the table looking rich and warm rather than dreary and dull.

For table linens we turned to our favorite line in our retail shop, Kim Seybert. We’ve always loved her capiz shell placemats and found the gray ones seen here to be stunning. The luster of the capiz shell is a wonderful contrast to the motif on the china. We added in Kim Seybert’s “Brushstroke” Napkin, which incorporates both the gray and tan that we wanted to pull out of the china and then added in a flower napkin ring in the same gray as the placemat. The flower juxtaposes the more masculine images on the table to add visual interest. The final touches for the place setting are a cordial and flute by Saint Louis, both in a smoke gray.

We again combined our two colors for our candles, using latte colored candles in our L’Objet Platinum Evoca Candlesticks. Other accessories on the table include Nest Bowls, also by L’Objet, which add to the nature motif we’ve drawn from the china, as well as bring in a bronze finish which goes well with our coffee and gray colors. Lastly, we added Poppy Salt and Pepper Shakers from Michael Aram. By carrying the bronze finish throughout the table, as well as keeping within our natural theme, they proved to be the finishing touch for our fall table.
