- See how I built a blue and white Chinoiserie collection quickly and affordably. This iconic look has been around since the 17th century. See how this Western aesthetic was inspired by Eastern design. With roots in classicism and baroque, it is known for ornamental decoration and focuses on leisure. I will show you how to incorporate these pieces into your tabletop and decor. Pair with most any color to create a story and set the tone for any event. Now, you will notice this style wherever you go. It's that panache that lends class and credibility to any room. Let's explore Chinoiserie!
Here is a link to the Chinoiserie dress. Be sure to order a size larger than you need. It's very form fitting and runs small. amzn.to/3x4aFgA

Please step aside Ms. Stewart, Lady Mary Beth has entered the room!! Love that you educate us and then demonstrate how to make use of our treasures!!
You are too kind! Love Martha Stewart and this is a great compliment. 😘
Wonderful pieces.
The standout here is your DRESS ! FABULOUS.!!
Thanks so much! I got the dress on Amazon. Will look for a link to share.
See my community page for a link to the dress. 😉
I picked up an entire set of Blue Willow marked Japan at an estate sale very, very, very inexpensively. The set not only included the dishes but everything from salt & pepper shakers, platters, sugar & creamer set to the most beautiful pitcher. Plus many other pieces I haven't even unpacked yet. I'm totally in love with it. It was a wonderful surprise, I hadn't been looking anything like it but am totally hooked now!
Fabulous! 💙🤍💙🤍
thank you so much for this video Because......15 years ago I bought a vase for $20 that I absolutely loved. it was marked on the bottom but all it looked like was 5 pinpoint dots in the porcelain/ceramic. I studied those dots for 3 months and decided it said Minton. I knew no one else would see it or believe me........Today's video you flashed by a pair of vases and I thought, that style looks like my vase but you didn't say anything about them. After the video I thought let me look up Chinoiserie so I completely understand what it means. Didn't a picture of those vases pop up which are in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and they are called bottles. Mine is exactly the same bottle but mine has a different bird painted on either side of it and they were made by Minton! I would have never known if I hadn't watched your video today. It is so exciting to know you won a piece that is in a museum. This is actually my 2nd museum piece as I own a plate that is also in the Hillwood Museum in D.C.
You have a good eye for treasures! Great to hear about your patience with research and finding out the value of items.
Well done, Brandy!! You were right to trust your instincts!!
Keep on collecting!!
Great bargain with the return you acquired of the Blue Willow place settings!
Hi Mary Beth, Your dress is the star of this video. You have great taste!! Always enjoyable😊
I’ve been waiting for this video you have not disappointed.The dress was a great touch.
You make my heart sing. Thank you! 😘
Oh thank you for napkin folding this is an inspiration if I try this to my Tablescape definitely shout you out. Thank you so much for showing us your beautiful collection. Happy weekend
That would be awesome! If you lived closer, I would loan you my collection for filming.
Thank you Lady Mary Beth. I stumbled onto your website last week. I love to embellish my home for the holidays, seasons, and special occasions. You have taken me to a higher level 😊. I have embellished our home all week, pulling out many lovely items that we already own. I pulled out a thread crochet dresser scarf, sat an old dresser tray and 10 lovely old cologne bottles that were just stored away in one of the dresser drawers - making a lovely dresser display. Yes, you do elevate us to a higher level of elegance.
Great to hear from you! Glad you are elevating your everyday. 🥰
Love the blue and white. My mother and dad had collected for years. When they down sized, I got all of the items. No other family members wanted any of it. Their losts! I’ve added on to the collection. Thank you for showing us your collection.
Love blue and white 💙🤍chinasoire, Thanks for sharing ❤😊
Such a fun and informative video! Thank you Lady Mary Beth.
Thanks for watching! 💙🤍
This is my favorite video. Thank you so much. Have always wanted a Chinoiserie mirror, the frame with all the bracts and a few dangling bells on the top pediment.
Sign me up for one, too! 💙🤍
Now, I will be on the lookout for a Chinoiserie mirror as you described. Love!
Good afternoon from Toronto Ontario Canada, I just discovered your channel and subscribed after watching one video. I have since been binge watching at times and I really enjoy your classy approach as well as your obvious joy and passion while teaching and sharing. What a treat you are to watch, especially during these challenging times we all face. Thanks and be well!
I appreciate your kind comment. So pleased to hear from you! Just returned from my Chinoiserie themed birthday luncheon. Will share in a future segment. All the best from Texas! 🥰
Love your collection. The blue & white goes very well with the green. You have great taste. My name is Nisa. I live in the beautiful sunny island of Trinidad.🌞
Welcome fellow Trini to our little corner.
Nisa, great to hear from you! Hope you are well in Trinidad. Sending my best from Texas. We are headed to our home in Germany tomorrow.
@@LadyMaryBeth As a former British colony, we are well versed in the art of setting a gorgeous table, which we learn from home and later in secondary school for five years.
@@missmyabcmissgm2918 How absolutely wonderful that you learn the art of table setting in school. I need to visit Trinidad and enjoy your country’s hospitality.
I have shared your video on Facebook more than anything! I love it! So many people have no idea what chinoiserie is! Now I am seeing more of it all over ! I love it!
Thanks so much for sharing!!! 💙🤍
on point as usual, Mary Beth!
Thanks! 😘
I love your channel LMB! I watch it every night before I go to sleep. It gives me good vibes!
Love this! Thanks for the daily views! 🥰😘
Very elegant and a joy to watch.
Thanks so much!
I have posted this video on Facebook over 100 times ! So many people never heard of it! Every since I started my collection and I love it!
Thank Lady Mary Beth !
For sharing this information and history of Chinoiserie!
Huge thanks x 100! I appreciate you sharing. 😘
Greetings Marybeth,
This was great. Informative and fun. In the madness that is the world at present, to have a place with beauty and civility to escape to is a boon. I very much appreciate that you invite us in and share your knowledge and love of beauty with us. It is such a comfort. I hope your birthday celebration was wonderful.
Amicably,
AJ
Thanks for the birthday wishes! We are at our home in Germany and entertaining friends and family. Was surprised at the Chinoiserie elements at our home here. One is a ginger jar that I got at a flea market for 3 Euros. Had forgotten about much of this. Will film a home tour while here.
Love this video! I can't believe that I saw my late mother-in-law's hometown in it! Dragon and Tiger pagodas by lotus pond bring back a lot of fond memories!
Gorgeous ❤️ I found your channel a few days ago and have been watching all of your videos! You have exquisite taste and style. I am learning so much from you. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise! I hope you had an amazing birthday 🥳
Thank you so much!! My birthday was lovely and thanks for the wishes. I hosted a Chinoiserie themed luncheon yesterday to celebrate with my friends. It was all about a pop of pink with the blue and white. We filmed, so I hope to share it soon. Lots of busy work there and hard to focus on the camera. I am a one man band. Ha!
@@LadyMaryBeth I can’t wait to see it!
What a beautiful collection!
Inverted bowl is genius! Love the tea caddies. Everything is just lovely. Thank you for the history of Chinoiserie!
Hosted my birthday luncheon yesterday with this design element and a pop of pink. Such fun!
I have a pair of the ginger jars and two large vases in your pattern. Thank you for the information on these pieces in your fine collection!
Absolutely love the dress!!💙
I’ve been binge watching your videos this cold Canadian winter weekend and I’m really enjoying your presentations, your style of delivery and your eloquent voice. I could swear you must have been a teacher at some point. The items you feature are so similar to my tastes. I always thought my taste was too old fashioned, but high style never goes out of fashion. Many Blessings to you!
Great to hear from you. Always thought I would be a teacher, but studied international business instead. Enjoy your Sunday!
Thank you for this great video, i learned a lot i didnt know about the roof, and the green to match golden tip! never would have thought about that. and let me take a moment to compliment you on that gorgeous dress. it looks amazing on you. compliments. Your videos are so well produced entertaining and educating :) always looking forward to your videos.
Qqqqq!
I appreciate you! See my community page for a link to the dress. 😉
It's beautiful! I love it!
Thank you. This was so interesting. It's fun to learn the history of items that are at times fairly commonly found. I have several blue willow plates that belonged to my grandmother. I love them.
Wonderful that you have your grandmother’s Blue Willow. Yes, knowing the history makes it even more special.
Thanks for sharing, love Chinasoire ❤❤
Hi, Your video was very informative, I, myself lean toward the Dutch blue and white. Many years ago I was stationed in Germany (1982/83), and one of my trips was to Holland and that was where I fell in love with the Delft blue and white scenic pieces with windmills. I did have all of it displayed, but a year ago a tree fell on our house (no damage to plates and teapots) but I had to pack it all up so they could repair half of our house. We are back in our house but I decided to make a change and didn't put out the Dutch. Most of my kitchen is now about the teapots and teacups. Right now my search is for a Foley teacup that is absolutely stunning, the one that got away from me was $100, my husband would have killed me if I had bought it. Anyway, I enjoyed your video, Thank you
Very elegant and beautiful collection
Thank goodness I found your channel. I love your ideas and great style. Thank you !
It’s a pleasure to hear from you! 😘
Oh I love your dress
Thanks so much!
I've always admired this style and it was interesting to learn the history. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is my favourite of your videos, so far. I too am a lover of blue and white and live with it throughout my home. Spice are my everything dishes. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, collections and living a beautiful life tips. Keep the videos coming. I've watched all of yours twice. I still enjoy them. 🤗
💜Great idea with the bowl💜
Love it
Cute dress too. Love the tea caddy.
See my community page for a link to the dress. 💙🤍
Absolutely fascinating.
I knew little of Chinoiserie and I now have an appreciation of it.
Thank you Mary Beth for sharing your wealth of knowledge on it.
I love your Vlogs and look forward to each new one.👌😍
So pleased to get your message. It really makes us appreciate a style or product with a bit of history to go with it. Packing for Germany tonight. Will share a home tour with you soon.
So lovely!
You are so kind!
I have shared your video more than anyone! I believe that you have made Chinoiserie come to live! Now they are selling it everywhere! I am collecting and decorating my home with it! ! I love it ! Thank you for sharing the History of it !
I have collected almost all of them ! I love it all!
I am Vicky from Las Vegas Nevada!
I am almost memorized everything that you said!
Thank you Lady Mary Beth !
I am learning a lot from you! Thank you!!
Thanks for sharing!! Great to hear from you, Vicky. I am always learning, too. Las Vegas is on my list to film a thrifting adventure. Have heard about a two story Goodwill. Do you have recommendations of thrift shops or antique malls?
Superb presentation of the history and collection! 💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍
Thank you kindly!
I love all manner of blue and white ware. I enjoyed the capsule backgrounder of the history of Chinoiserie!
Thanks for watching. Can’t get enough of Chinoiserie. 💙
Hi Lady Mary Beth. Thank you for making this video as I have heard of it but never knew what it was. I love your vase with the orchid. Marie
Glad you have embraced Chinoiserie. I just love this design element. Featured pops of pink in my birthday celebration. You can look for that video on my channel.
Mary Beth thank you for the interesting and beautiful Video of your collections of Chinoiseries and ways to display and enjoy each piece. I have a few pieces that I honestly never thought much about guess my you might say I haven't appreciated their beauty or uniqueness until you explained your collections and their history. Cute dress.
The koi vases are a wonderful addition. Something for me to look for too!
🙋♀️... Love, love, love!🤗
As always, I'm so excited to watch your next video...you make it so interesting, a present it so well. I really loved your idea on the upside down bowl, on how else you may use another piece of your collection. I have always favored blue willow dishes too, and loved the coy fish. Happy Birthday and enjoy it . Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the birthday wishes! Hosted a Chinoiserie themed luncheon yesterday with pops of pink. It was fabulous. Oh, found the same pair of koi fish on eBay. So excited!
You have a good eye for beautiful things. TY for the ideas of how to use the pieces
Thank you so much! We are at our second home in Germany now. Found Chinoiserie here that I had forgotten we had, including a ginger jar found at a flea market for 2 Euros.
Thanks for the napkin folding, I enjoy new ideas 💡 You are an inspiration!
I appreciate you! ☺️
Very lovely collection, can never have enough blue and white pieces. I walked into a thrift shop in Canada about 25 years ago and bought a blue willow plate and that was it, I was hooked. I actually had never seen that pattern before. I’ve since collected things from all my travels, the world loves blue and white. Thanks for sharing all your lovely pieces.. I am loving those duratuff goblets. Think I will add those to my set. ❤️
Happy birthday what a beautiful dress and I love the setting
Thanks for the birthday wishes! ☺️
Wow,hi Lady Mary,i love your collections as well as your outfits.stunning
Thanks so much! I appreciate your kind comment!
Looking forward to your CZcams’s. Thanks to you, I have found Waterford crystal and a love for the more beautiful things to incorporate into my home. It really can be fun.
Great to hear that you have discovered a love of Waterford! 💚
Hope you will be posting again soon. Enjoy your videos very much.
This is a wonderful piece of pottery.
Just love the blue and white! So many possibilities with table settings and decor.
I love your dress!!
Thanks! Here is a link if you are interested. I suggest ordering up a size. amzn.to/3kYoHwh
Love this setting
It goes with a variety of colors. Thinking red for Christmas. ❤️
I love your videos! The way you just sound so thrilled at your acquisitions just makes me smile to myself. It reminds me of when I bring my collectible purchases home and am unwrapping them. Aww I make an event of it, complete with wine glass and music. My friends think I'm crazy but begrudgingly submit to my nice items lol. You validate my passion in this area. I am grateful. Happy Birthday and your dress looks great and fits you to a "T".
Sounds like we are kindred spirits! Love that you celebrate your finds. Great way to appreciate! 😀
Wonderful history and examples of Chinoiserie! You have a beautiful collection and I think your table and backdrop for your dinner party is so lovely! I hope you have a very Happy Birthday 🎉🎁 celebration and thank you so much for providing us with the interesting history of Chinoiserie 💙
Thanks, Terianne! Hosted my birthday luncheon yesterday with this design element and pops of pink. Such fun!
Very adorable pieces.
Thank you! Can’t get enough of blue and white. 💙🤍
@@LadyMaryBeth You're welcome, everything is so gorgeous.
Beautiful)
4/20/21 Greetings and Blessings from Dallas Texas USA🇺🇸
This is my first time watching this video and was not disappointed. I have too many Chinoiserie pieces "scattered" around my home with no rhyme or reason many were oven by past tenants so they are very dear to me. ...this video gives me ideas that will bring elegance to my tables and my red Chnese furniture. Thank you. I am subscribing.
I appreciate you watching and subscribing! 😘
What a brilliant idea you’ve done with the inverted bowl used as pedestal 💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍 I love everything CHINOISERIE. And also, may I know where you purchased your blue/white outfit? You look stunning in that dress 💘
See my community page for a link to the dress. 😉
Very informative. Thank you
Great to hear from you!
You have really inspired me with the beautiful blue & white and I have started collecting some lovely pieces. I look forward to displaying my collection! Love your blue & white dress. You are such an inspiration! Blessings!
Wonderful that you are collecting blue and white! 💙🤍
Blue Willow by Churchill is my everyday pattern and I never thought to pop in those green touches - Wow! My new favorite color combo! 💙🤍💚

Love that your mom had the classic Blue Willow. 💙 Have a great weekend! I am hosting my birthday luncheon today using many of these Chinoiserie pieces.
My mind was blown when you used the upside down bowl as a base for the vase! Great idea!
Glad you liked it!
Beautiful pieces! I love Chinoiserie! New supporter. Thanks for the history lesson!
Thanks for viewing the Chinoiserie segment. I hosted my birthday luncheon yesterday with this design element and a pop of pink. Such fun! 💙💗
I love 💕 your videos
I really appreciate you viewing the segments. All the best from our second home in Germany. Will film a home tour while here.
Love love your video ❤❤. Love love how everything is so exquisite ❤❤Love the history behind Chinoiserie. Learned a new way to fold a napkin. I want to know how do you know so many different crystal patterns? Elevate your everyday🥰😘 Thank you Lady Mary Beth ❤
Lady Mary Beth has stated in previous videos that she had worked for the Waterford company. Her knowledge of crystal, chinaware and silverware is truly at expert level. I love watching her on YT!
Thank you so much!! I hosted my birthday luncheon yesterday with a pop of pink and Chinoiserie. It was fabulous and I am exhausted today. Packing for Germany tonight.
@@LadyMaryBeth Happy Happy birthday Lady Mary Beth 🎂🎁🥳 Many Many Blessings, Good health and Well wishes 🙏🙏🙏May you have an Awesome flight ✈ and trip.🎉
@@marilurodri4801 I appreciate it! My suitcases are full of tablecloths and napkins. We have a nice collection at our home in Germany, but I can’t help myself.
I absolutely love chinoiserie pieces and have started a collection. I find the blue and white so refreshing. I just rewatched this video which I saved from several months ago when I first discovered your channel. It is my favorite! After a recent trip to Ireland, I was inspired to take out some Irish linen in a Chinoiserie blue and white pattern that a favorite aunt gave me years ago. It's now on our dining room buffet. Thank you for the chinoiserie history! I also visited the Waterford Crystal factory and store in Waterford this spring. So beautiful!! Though my budget was limited, I was able to buy a beautiful crystal fleur-de-lis paper weigh. Please consider a video on Waterford Crystal 's history and your role in the company. Thank you for your videos and great insight! ❤️
Finally the chinoiserie segment!! Loved learning the history and seeing your collection!! Where did you find that perfect dress for the segment? Love it!💙💙
So glad you enjoyed the Chinoiserie! The dress is actually from Amazon. Will share a link when I find it again.
I like your dress a lot!
Thank you so much!
Hello Lady Mary Beth What a very informative video I really enjoyed it God Bless you Josephine:)
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for popping over and viewing.
I know about the galleon in Manila with Magellan Galleon that is why how my mom loves this chinoiserie I have a lot of this pieces in our home in the Philippines . Your video is always inspired me to watch the history
You impress me with your knowledge of the Galleon trade. Really fascinating that this influenced other parts of the world. In Texas, Talavera pottery is popular and a direct result of this. I am in awe of history and how we can learn from it.
Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
I love chinoiserie. Beautiful collection
Thank you! It's surprising how much Chinoiserie we have in our homes and don't even realize. I see lots of it in period dramas as well.
Here watching my friend
Glad to see you here, Glamour Ellen. Love your videos and beautiful tablescapes.
Your outfit complements your presentation well.
Thanks so much! It was a bargain on amazon. See my channel community page for a link to this affordable dress.
Saludos desde Madrid España todo está hermoso
Mary Beth I just found you channel a couple of weeks ago and I’ve binge watched them all. How fun you are!! I also thrift and I’ve found and decorated my home with fabulous finds. I’m a fellow Texas. I live in the Dallas area. We have several local antique malls and thrift shops. Looking forward to your next video.
So nice to hear from you! Dallas is one of my favorite shopping spots. Have you been to Upscale Resale on W. Campbell? Pop in and tell Miss Betty I said hello. We are at our home in Germany now. Flea markets are not allowed right now.
@@LadyMaryBeth I’ve not been to the one on Campbell but, I shop Highstreet often. Have you shopped Forestwood Antique Mall? There are a couple of good ones in Fort Worth and a wonderful resale shop on Camp Bowie. She buys estate sale and always has beautiful Waterford crystal. Flores is her name and she has beautiful things. Enjoy your time in Germany. Hot here in Texas.
@@cynthiagreen6927 Thanks for the heads up. Will visit these shops on my next trip to Dallas. It’s cool and rainy here in Germany. Glad to escape the Texas heat and humidity.
Great vid, learned SO much, great to see how 'our Delft' is so popular around the world. 'Delft' is actually a city in Holland, for those who want to know. 💙
Can’t get enough of this Chinoiserie. 💙
Me, too!
I found two beautiful pieces a few days ago at Burke’s. One was a lovely bowl for $12.99 and the other was a huge vase for $16.99. I am just getting started with my collection.
That is awesome! Chinoiserie would be a great holiday look with tartan plaid or red accents.
I have those flower from hobby lobby few of them
stunning collection, you must have spent a ton of time to build it.
Me encantan tus vídeos y por tus vídeos visite las tiendas d antigüedades encontré artículos increíbles. Gracias por tu trabajo. 😊😉🙏
Well, Happy Early Birthday wishes to you!
I appreciate the birthday wishes! Hosted my Chinoiserie birthday luncheon yesterday. Pops of pink took it in a posh direction.
Oh I love the fish
Yes, those fish! Borrowed from a friend, but was lucky to find the EXACT PAIR on eBay this week. My heart is happy!
@@LadyMaryBeth yay I cannot wait to see it
I just love Yr videos and you are so classy and elegant.. I learnt a lot from you... I myself hv a collection of crystals and chinoiserie.. Happy birthday.. And BTW did anyone tell u you look like LATE LADY DIANA... GREETINGS FROM THE 🇬🇧
You make my heart sing! Thanks for your kind comment. We are packing tonight to finally fly to Germany tomorrow.
💕❤️💕❤️
Would you please tell us where and how do you store your items when you aren't using or displaying them?
Some of the Chinoiserie found a home on top of that small cabinet. Many pieces were used yesterday at my birthday luncheon. I will incorporate some items into other rooms. I do have storage when not in use.
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️very nicest! You look like a Royal blood or you really are❤❤❤
Thanks for watching all things Chinoiserie. My family is of English ancestry. My grandmother was connected to upper society through her lineage.
