The Watchword is Whimsy – John Derian Domed Cake Stand

I have been a fan of John Derian ever since spotting his delicately decoupaged glass trays and paperweights at Chelsea Passage in Barneys NY. The lovely vintage books and emphera Derian uses are his signature decoupage style. Many of the images used by Derian are antique or vintage book plates featuring botanical and scientific illustrations. I happened upon this lovely domed cake stand – “White Floral” because of its delicate silhouette enclosing what looks like a white bouquet of hydrangea and gardenia. It is an everlasting and beautiful collection of white flowers under which to hide a pretty princess birthday cake or coconut cupakes!
