Sylvie Favorite

Styling Essential

A little piece of French farm life, minus the mud. Found in the Comté region, this three-legged wooden stool once sat beside dairy cows whose milk would become the area’s celebrated cheese. Its rounded seat and tapered legs show the practicality of rural craftsmanship, built for balance and endurance. Today it’s more likely to hold a stack of books or a morning cup of coffee than a pail of milk. Sylvie loves its simplicity and the quiet connection it keeps to the French countryside.

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