Plated and served: 🍽️✨ Our Ancient Courses Napkin Ring is a sculptural tribute to the legacy of the Mississippi River — whose waters, ever responsive to the forces of nature, have altered course, yet never ceased to carve their way forward. 💪🌊🌿✨

Xover0's solid sterling silver Ancient Courses Napkin Ring is centered on a setting of Ginori china plates. The Napkin Ring holds a robin's egg blue Yves Delorme linen jacquard napkin folded upright in a flame-like shape. A Baccarat vessel of Meyer lemons and an antique sterling silver candelabra set the background.

A River Runs Through It: 🎺⚓🦢🚢

Introducing our brand new heirloom napkin rings: inspired by ancient paths of the Mississippi River across thousands of years of its geological history.

We created these pieces by carefully hand-tracing historic meander maps of the Mississippi with pencil on vellum, re-tracing each river digitally, then interweaving them manually to create the models for casting.

These are the first pieces in an ongoing collection celebrating the rhythms and grace of natural geography shaped by the passage of time. Designed to honor familiar landscapes, this series aims to ground social gatherings in the shared terrain that connects generations. 🎆🎇

A solid sterling silver heirloom napkin ring, designed as a sculptural tribute to the Mississippi River, rests on a white background. The design interweaves seven historic pathways of the world's 10th largest river into an intricate and functional sculpture.

RIP New Orleans character Al Scramuzza, 1927-2025. Best known as owner of "Seafood City", produced creative low-budget commercials for local television - if you lived in New Orleans in the 1980s and had a tv set, you likely saw the linked one and other similar repeatedly. He also had is own "Scram Records" label, recording local R&B talent including Eddie Bo, Johnny “Little Sonny” Jones and Walter “Wolfman” Washington.

Okay, yeah, you all know that I don’t share any information that might identify me. Not in this America. Still, some things are more important than #privacy.So here is a nugget.
Funnily enough, we are all full blown #atheists.

Anyway, please read a #NYT #GiftArticle that includes my closest relative & friend #MarkRoudané about historic #NewOrleans, #Creole culture, #FamilyMythology & the deep weirdness of “#passing”.

Organizers of April's National #Hurricane Conference in #NewOrleans canceled several #FEMA-led sessions - including one aimed at helping #emergency managers make #evacuation decisions during #hurricanes - after FEMA staff dropped out due to the travel restrictions, said John Wilson, chair of the conference.

Wilson said the director of the NHC usually speaks at the conference about lessons learned from past hurricane seasons & shares forecasting model updates, but did not this year.
