Notes from Sylvie:

There is some slight wear on the fabric item, and scuffing at the bottom where the wood meets the floor.

We stumbled upon this 3 Paneled Upholstered Screen tucked away in an old warehouse in Marseille, France. Originally found in a home in the hills of Nice and was once used in a mid-century boudoir, it likely stood between glamorous dresses and a perfectly messy dressing table.

Marseille, the vibrant port city of the Mediterranean, is a place where history, culture, and tradition collide. Founded over 2,600 years ago, Marseille is one of France’s oldest cities, with a rich tapestry woven from its diverse influences—Greek, Roman, and beyond. The city’s bustling markets, colorful neighborhoods, and sun-soaked coastline have long been a melting pot of ideas, artistry, and craftsmanship.

The surrounding Provençal landscapes, with their olive groves, terracotta rooftops, and rugged coastline, offer a glimpse into the soul of Southern France. It’s here, in and around Marseille, that we uncovered our latest collection of antiques—pieces that speak to the city’s maritime spirit and eclectic soul.

Sylvie rummaged through dusty, forgotten warehouses, met with third generation antique dealers and found herself wandering through vibrant seaside markets to curate this collection.
