Autumn Tea Time by the Fireplace

The first chilly afternoons, the kettle whistling in the kitchen, and the smell of a wood fire that catches in the curtains. This table was set for tea time in the season of slow things — sweet pastries, hands warmed by ceramic, and an old novel waiting on the armchair.

Warm woods, copper, terracotta, a soft beige for the linens : a comforting composition that loves the gentle light of October.
