I prefer the color by a wide margin. It's a nice pic of some interesting pieces. My only bit of advice would be to avoid crops that leave an object tangent to the edge of frame, like the teapot spout in this shot. And since the teapot feels like a main focal point, I think it would be best were it not cropped at all. Good work.
