Description

Mrs. Alfred McKnight is hosting the Garden Club Tea for 300 members in her Fort Worth, Texas, home. Several flower arrangements decorated the reception suite and the dining room. The dining table is covered with a damask cloth in an all-over floral design. On display in the center of the table is a typical Victorian arrangement of flowers, gilded wheat sprays, and fruit. The vases are a three-piece china ensemble of a low broad-mouthed urn and two tall vases of hand decorated china.
