A chic set of four vintage eggplant-form place card holders, rendered in gleaming silver tone with contrasting gold-tone leafy caps and stems.
Each miniature aubergine has an elegant, elongated silhouette with a weighted bulbous base, while the sculptural gold leaves conceal a discreet slot for holding a place card, menu card, table number or small note. The mixed-metal finish gives these whimsical little vegetables an unexpectedly glamorous quality—equally at home on a formal holiday table or an exuberant, collected tablescape.
At approximately 2.5" H × 1" W each, they're substantial enough to stand securely while remaining appropriately scaled for individual place settings.
Wonderful for Thanksgiving and fall entertaining, but their jewel-like gold-and-silver finish makes them versatile year-round. They would be particularly striking mixed with traditional silver, brass candlesticks, colorful linens, majolica or botanical tableware.
Sold as a set of four. Five sets (20 place card holders total) are available, making it possible to create a coordinated table for a larger dinner party or event.
Dimensions: Approximately 2.5" H × 1" W each.
Quantity: Listing is for four place card holders. Up to 20 available.
Vintage condition with age-appropriate surface wear and variations to the finish; see photographs for details.
