FRENCH ANTIQUES & HOLIDAYS IN FRANCE IN THE PERIGORD AND PROVENCE

We are finally off on holiday……..Lucy the youngest shop dog has her passport and we are off,  first to the Perigord,  in the south-west of France and from there to our house in Provence. For antiques dealers there are small fairs on all over the place so we could be coming back with some new things for the shop.
Lucy ready for the off……..

It is often difficult to know what to take as presents for friends whom you are staying with and I am taking grouse for dinner, shot in Scotland and cooked in a chateau in the woods of the south-west of France.

Meanwhile there are always new pieces in the shop click on the image to see them
For effortless chic this mid 17thc Japanese screen hangs above a Louis XVI period canapé with it;s wonderful original upholstery in a French country house chic state
More soon …………..
