Annie Modica Eventing Tray It’s a peculiar word for describing a category of equestrian sport. The P., however, has an alternate definition: “Eventing (v.)- the act of transforming any mundane moment into a special event.” Next to that entry in the P.’s dictionary you might just find this bar tray by talented California decoupage artist Annie Modica. Happy hour just got happier.

Meissen Bluegrass Cachepot Her visit had the weight of portent right from the beginning. The air was electric from Dresden on. Meissen was opening their doors to the P. Meissen, that legendary house who discovered the Chinese secret of porcelain in the 1700s and introduced the first Western-made ‘white gold.’ Meissen, whose incomprable artistry is demanded on the tables of presidents and kings. Meissen, a company so beloved by the world that it survived the fall of the Empire, the fall of the Third Reich, and the fall of the Soviet Union relatively unscathed. Meissen was inviting the P. to their inner sanctum. The P. arrived and was promptly presented with a special pattern, created by the masters of porcelain just for her. She was so astonished, she sent the first service to Kentucky’s governor’s mansion (just to make sure the ol’ boy was paying attention). The P. has been a muse and champion for Meissen ever since.

Meissen Bluegrass Bread & Butter The history of porcelain manufacturing in Europe begins in Meissen, Germany near Dresden, the cradle of European porcelain. Apart from the short-lived production of the Medici factory in Florence in the 1560's, Meissen was the first successful producer of hard-paste porcelain - or true porcelain - in Europe. Meissen's products, and those of its imitators, who came later, destroyed the supremacy of the oriental porcelain that had held a virtual monopoly in the world since Marco Polo opened the china trade in 1295. In the 17th and 18th centuries porcelain was viewed as a great luxury in Europe. Court society longed for everything rare, which porcelain was. It became the fashion for northern European rulers to install a porcelain room where every inch was covered by porcelain. Just as in our time, the ownership of such precious things demonstrated wealth, luxury, and culture. Before Meissen discovered how to produce it, porcelain was being imported from China by the East Indian Company (thus, the term chinaware). The European countries' desire for porcelain was so great it was causing them troubling trade gaps. To arrest this disastrous outflow of monies, European rulers were frantically trying to find out how to make this chinaware themselves. Nowhere was this search more intense than in Saxony in eastern Germany. Augustus the Strong, Elector of Saxony and King of Poland (who reigned from about 1693 to 1733), was obsessed with a passion for porcelain. He had heard of a young alchemist, Johann Frederick Bottger, who had worked for Frederick I of Prussia, having boasted that he could turn base metal into gold. Proving unsuccessful in this process, Bottger fled Berlin to Saxony (he was only about 20 years old at this time), where he was immediately imprisoned by Augustus. Augustus felt if Bottger could produce gold, he could also produce porcelain-or
