The Carnets D'Equateur collection from Hermès is my favorite dinnerware collection of all time. It's elegant, luxurious, and sophisticated with hyper-realistic illustrations and gold accents. Due to the price and availability, I've been adding only a few pieces at a time. I hope to complete my Carnets D'Equateur collection one day. 

This tea cup and saucer help me drink more tea. I am 100% a coffee person, but with this teacup and saucer set, I feel more inclined to brew my tea, and take my time to enjoy it. 

The details in the illustration are incredible. 

The colors are vibrant, and all the animals look so real. 

You can see the Hermès mark on the back of the saucer. 

If you want to get the orange box, you'll need to purchase them in a set. But you can purchase a single set if you wish. 

But the teacup and saucer come as a set. 

And recently, I added a new piece - a tart platter! I placed an order and had to wait a few months because the production's so backed up! 

When I unboxed it, I gasped at this beautiful piece of art! 

A tart platter's larger than dinner plates, and it's ideal for serving cakes and other sharables. It's a great size as a cheese board, as well. 

A jaguar's my favorite feline, and it's truly a masterpiece. 

This jaguar in the jungle is about to lunge at me and come to life. 

There are many Hermès dinnerware collections that are worth collecting; however, the Carnets d'Equateur is hands down the best.
