Clockwise from top left: A row of baby's breath—
filled silver serving pieces, like this circa-1865
cream jug, lined along the length of the table
creates a gleaming mix-and-match centerpiece.
Metallic-silver chargers present scallop-edged
flow-blue china in Ridgeways' Dundee pattern,
circa 1910, resting atop cream-hued contemporary
plates from England; the dreidels and subtle Star of
David tablecloth were bought from Alicia Nelson's
Tradition! Tradition! (allthingsjewish.com ) in
Southfield, while Weiner found the English-made
Chanukah Crackers — which pop open to reveal
a paper crown, a tiny gift and a joke or fortune
—from the Sur La Table catalogue (surlatable.com ;
S19.95/set of 8). The individual pieces of the pewter
Flexus Menorah, designed by Jeanne Atkin, can
be moved around to use for lighting throughout the
year. Vintage oversized white napkins are neatly
wrapped in Weiner's collection of vintage silver
rings, each monogrammed with a different name:
Dorothea, Zoe, Gillian — even Mother and Daddy.
