Champagne Table Poster

Champagne Table is a green line drawing with a short greeting written across the top: Pop, Fizz, Cheers! in a quick script. Below it the line picks out a lemon, a coupe glass with a hatched pattern around the bowl, a champagne bottle seen straight on, a tall flute, a cut lemon, two olives and a wedge of lime, all spaced out across the cream ground with nothing touching anything else. The drawing is loose, with lines that overshoot at the corners and bubbles indicated by a few small marks, so the whole sheet reads as something sketched while the evening was happening rather than planned.

Green on cream is easy to live with, so the frame can be plain: light oak, white or black all work, with black making the line look firmest. It belongs in a kitchen, on a bar wall or beside a drinks cabinet, and it pairs well with green glass, brass and stoneware. Hang it at eye height where people stand rather than high above furniture, since the small objects reward a closer look.
