The Look:
A Frolic in Provence
Prepare to charm the berets off your guests with Ro’Table’s Valensole Afternoon Picnic tablescape. The Valensole Afternoon Picnic is a love letter to the lazy, hazy afternoons of the French countryside.
Unfurl the Lemon Sherbet Stripe Tablecloth
Unroll the jaunty yellow and white striped linen, reminiscent of the sunflower fields where Van Gogh might have shed a tear or two in awe. Its sunny stripes bring the light hearted joie de vivre straight to your table, setting the stage for tales of rural escapades and a glass or two of pastis.
Take Center Stage With the Valensole Lavender Starter & Dinner Plates
Where the hand-drawn hot air balloons offer a whimsical escape over pastoral vignettes. They're your ticket to an aerial view of the lavender-strewn landscapes without the need for a pilot's license.
Bring the Olive Blooms to Your Picnic
Pair the plates with our bestselling Olive Bloom Placemats and Napkins.
The Final Touches
For the final touches, add our cream ceramic candle holders, and the olive green champagne coupes. They're not just for toasting; they're for practicing your best French accent as you clink glasses and say, "À la vôtre!"
And For That Pièce De Résistance, The Centrepiece is a Baguette
So grand, it deserves its own postcode. Slice it open, stuff it with sun-ripened tomatoes and a slab of Camembert, and voilà!
Sprinkle your Picnic With Wicker
Spilling with market-fresh goodies, and you've got the makings of a Provençal fête.
So, raise your glass, tear off a chunk of that oversized baguette, and savor the simplicity of dining à la Provence. Bon appétit, mes amis!
MUSIC

Bon appétit, mes amis! Santé!
A love letter to the lazy, hazy afternoons of the French countryside — the Valensole Picnic is Ro’Table’s most romantic, pastoral
tablescape, inspired by the lavender fields and sun-drenched terraces of Provence. This French countryside table setting brings the charm of an afternoon in the south of France to wherever you choose to dine.
The Provence-inspired tableware centers on our Valensole Lavender Scalloped Dinner and Starter Plates — delicate, softly fluted designs that capture the gentle purple haze of Valensole’s famous fields. Pair them with our Buttercream Yellow Stripe tablecloth or the breezy Summer of Love for a lavender table setting that feels sun-kissed and effortless. White Rattan Chargers add a refined layer beneath each plate.
Build the picnic tablescape with Olive Bloom placemats and napkins in deep botanical green, Buttercream Yellow cutlery for warmth, and our Hand-Painted Lily of the Valley Tumblers for glassware that continues the garden theme. Frosted Blue Haze Vases and Tilted Sage Bud Vases hold single stems of lavender or wildflowers, while Olive Grove Dotty candle holders and Pistachio Cream taper candles add a soft glow as the afternoon turns to evening.
The Valensole Picnic is outdoor entertaining tableware at its most beautiful — designed for long lunches, garden gatherings, and any meal where the only agenda is to linger. Set the scene and let Provence come to you.
