Present Joys

“We thank the Lord of heaven and earth
who hath preserved us from our birth
for present joys, for blessings past,
and for the hope of heaven at last.”

How wonderful is this dinnerware designed for use on board the legendary passenger train the Superchief? I’m not a train guy, but when Jim Lehrer was on my show, I read his mystery novel Super, set on the Superchief. There’s something wonderful about the Deco combination of aesthetics and kineticism. The beauty of a machine built for transportation. Very inspiring.

This is fabulous. I especially like the moiré pattern on the outside edge of the plate.
