13 Table scaping

Melbourne, Australia

I think they forgot the cutlery!

Table setting today has become such an art it has spawned a new name: "Tablescaping."
Decorative elements are incorporated into formal table settings that reflect the theme of the occasion and the type of food.
It is a practice that has been developing for more than a thousand years.
The history of table setting goes back before the medieval era.

You are truly a great observer and thinker of things, often overlooked! Great facts about table settings, but who needs cutlery here, there´s no food! :) Vote!

Too good to eat from, perhaps that is why they omitted the cutlery!!!!

You've done well! This is a lovely table setting, and very seasonally appropriate! V
