This setting comes straight from Russia with love! The fearlessly fanciful Matthew David Hopkins takes a classic china pattern and builds on it to make a table worthy of Nicholas and Alexandra. In an echo of his Fabergé-like egg centerpiece (the base is florists' foam!), this table is an unabashed blend of elaborate patterns and textures. What keeps the mix from becoming chaos is its consistent palette—warm jewel tones accented with gold and navy.
