🍂🍁 A Spode India Tree Event — Dish Sister’s Official China Pattern 🍁🍂

I’m so happy the Austin Dish Sisters have taken me in as one of their own! 🧡 Another big thank you to Elizabeth @imaginary_dinner_parties for monogramming the napkins for me!

Some patterns become more than china—they become part of our story.🍂

With its exotic tree, delicate blossoms, and birds nestled among the branches, 🍂India Tree reflects the long-standing European fascination with Asian-inspired design. Spode introduced the pattern in the early 19th century, and its timeless botanical beauty has continued to inspire table lovers ever since.

Today, our Dish Sisters bring India Tree to life in our own individual ways—Different tables, different stories… but one beautiful thread connecting us all: the joy of gathering around a table. 🤎

Because what makes a beautiful table even more special is the friendship gathered around it. 🤎

Our pattern. Our tables. Our little Austin based tablescape community with our loved honorary members from California and New York.

🍂🍁 A Spode India Tree Event — Dish Sister’s Official China Pattern 🍁🍂
My dish cupboard only holds a set of salad plates in the iconic India Tree pattern, a gift from my Dish Sister, Roxy. It is perfect for autumn with its striking orange/ rust colors. The historical design was inspired by an early textile from India. I paired it with the modern feel of Courtly Check rimmed in gold, and dinners from Williams-Sonoma in Plymouth Gate Rim to lend a contemporary feel with the geometric border. The octagonal chargers are from MacKenzie-Childs MacLachlan collection. The bold black and white checks and distinctive twisted purple and green border offer interest and contrast to the ruffled Courtly Check. It all reflects sophistication without looking too formal.

🍂🍁 A Spode India Tree Event — Dish Sister’s Official China Pattern 🍁🍂

Can you imagine how special a pattern has to be - to be unanimously selected as the official China pattern of our dish-loving group. This pattern has won our hearts and though it works year-round and matches and mixes gorgeously with others it reigns during autumn. It’s definitely an 🍂 Autumn.

Today I’ve mixed it with my favorite Imari dinner plates.

Spode’s India Tree pattern 🍂@spodeus was inspired by the rich decorative tradition of Imari porcelain, particularly the colorful Japanese and Chinese export wares that were highly fashionable in Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries.

The connection is especially visible in:

* Cobalt blue, iron red, and gold — classic Imari colors.
* Ornamental florals and foliage arranged in dense, decorative compositions.
* Exotic botanical imagery, reflecting Europe’s fascination with Asian porcelain.
* The overall ornate, collected look that makes India Tree so wonderful for tablescaping.

Our tables may be set in Texas, but their inspiration travels far beyond. Spode India Tree, 🍁with its jewel-like palette of cobalt blue, iron red and gold, reflects the enduring influence of Imari and the European love affair with Asian porcelain. Perhaps that is

The Austin Dish Sisters were together again this week to welcome Alma back to Texas. This group connected on Instagram and bonded over our love for tables and entertaining. It’s truly like we’ve known each other forever. We trusted our instincts… some flying across the country, others opening homes to strangers, all for people we’d never actually met! And now we’re celebrating birthdays and planning more get-togethers!! We are definitely “birds-of-a-feather”!! Memories we’ll never forget… @roundrockdonuts @antique_rr_gallery @robins_curated_treasures @whiskeycake @texaschiliparlor @heb @fondasanmigueltx Thankful for this group and our time together!!
