Alright, the set-up: You have 10 of these Johnson Brothers 'His Majesty' dinner plates, and 10 cups and saucers. You have no soup bowls, salad plates, or chargers. You want to set a Turkey Day table that is stylish and fun, the transferware serving as a nod to tradition. What do you mix with these?
My first thought was Wedgwood drabware, but I think it's too tan. I've also seen a solid ivory plate with a basketweave textured rim, but I can't remember where. Your thoughts?

A very simple cream classic design would not fight with the intricacy of your Thanksgiving pattern
would be nice to find something solid bone white with a gentle scalloped rim.
Isn't that ivory with basketweave Wedgwood?
Can you mix with Spode Woodlands?
I'd probably go with the ivory.
