We discovered this Adjustable Wooden Stool in the warehouse of a collector who spent over 50 years gathering timeless pieces. With its clever mechanism allowing the seat to rise and lower, this stool once served as a functional tool in workshops or studios. Its solid wood construction and beautifully turned screw detail are a testament to early 20th-century craftsmanship. Imagine it sitting in a bustling atelier, adjusting to meet the needs of artisans.

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.
