Worth Mentioning: This is a simple and rustic tabletop that makes it seem like guests are enjoying a home-cooked meal. The different levels created by items such as the pizza stand and breadsticks emerging from the glass makes the tabletop visually interesting. Also, the white china pulls out the freshness of the food and makes the color pop.
