Found in Avignon but originally from a 19th-century hotel in Saint-Tropez, this cupboard comes out of the part of the building guests never saw - the back-of-house rhythm where linens were constantly being washed, aired, and turned over. In hotels along the Riviera, where humidity and sea air were constant, storage wasn’t just about holding textiles, it was about keeping them dry, fresh, and ready. The back openings are the tell. They were intentionally built in to allow air to move through the cabinet, creating a slow, continuous circulation so damp linen could dry without heat or damage. The wood has softened to that pale, sun-washed tone you only get from years near open windows, salt air, and constant use. Sylvie loves it in a bedroom for linens, stacked high on the shelves, each pile visible the moment you open the doors.
