Sylvie Favorite

Oh, this one has gravitas. Found in Villeneuve, this oak monastery chair carries the engraved initials of a former occupant - one of many who sat, prayed, and chanted here over the years. With its flat runners, upright stance, and spindle back, it’s a study in monastic simplicity. Sylvie likes it in the entryway, a perfect perch for when you've finally come home and can remove your shoes.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.

    This antique piece wears its history beautifully. As with many antiques, this piece may show gentle repairs, cracks, scratches, holes, years worth of patina, and stains - just the way we like it.
