A spring table, without the plastic pastels

Tulips, milky glaze and one bright napkin. That's the whole trick.

Spring tables go wrong when the pastels are plastic. Chalky, faded, slightly dirty pastels look like the season; sugary ones look like a party shop.

What's on it

Tulips cut short in several small jars — they keep growing after cutting, so short is right
Plates in a milky or speckled glaze rather than bright white
One saturated colour, once: a napkin, or a single stem of something strong
Daylight. A spring table is a lunch table

A copper coin in the water is folklore; cold water and a re-trim every other day is what actually keeps them standing.
