“Morning For Reynard”

The “Morning for Reynard” is a collection from my heart and the fulfillment of a dream.  Its origin is in the passion I share for the hunt, and in details it combines a sense of whimsy with the classic.  The backsides of the pieces are important too. On the various backs there are selections of old traditional English hunt songs, a limerick or a dedication.

The collection tells the story of the hunt.  Each piece has a distinctive rim.  The patterns are carefully matched and were conceived to go together yet stand on their own.  Each rim tells a slightly different story and captures a slightly different aspect of the hunt.  The 16” ovular platter combines an element of each.  The center designs are interchangeable.

I believe art is individual; therefore I have designed this series so that my collector may individualize and customize their choices to best suit their taste.  The collection includes center designs that are classic and those that are more playful in nature.  It may be designed matching or my favorite—mix it up!   The art of the series is in the details. The fine porcelain collection is dishwasher and microwave safe and durable enough to last generations. My desire is that these pieces will take their place within their owner’s treasured heirlooms and that by using them on today’s table, they in their turn inspire the generations of tomorrow.
