Cool Off Your Summer Table with an Ethereal Creamware Centerpiece

With late summer temperatures on the rise, we’re ready to cool things down with the dreamiest, airiest tablescape imaginable. Our starting point: often-overlooked milky-white ceramic fruit sculptures. Play with your food—or the palette at least—by pairing faux fruit centerpieces with their real-life counterparts: white asparagus, grapes and melons are garden-fresh works of art. Then continue the mood with towering branches studded with alabaster blooms (fluffy white hydrangeas anyone?). Check out our roundup of pearly-hued vintage centerpieces for ideas on how to bring this ethereal (and slightly surreal) look to your table.
