  • Notes from Sylvie:

    Each Faux Bamboo mirror is hand selected by Sylvie and may differ from exact shape and patina displayed in images. The mirrored glass is antique so blackened patina spots may be present in the mirror surface. Rest assured, we only select our favorites.

Despite the name, these mirrors aren’t made from real bamboo. Instead, artisans crafted the frames from oak, carefully shaping the wood to mimic bamboo stalks. The varnished finish lets the rich oak grain shine through, while the bamboo-inspired detailing adds an airy, organic feel. This is a Sylvie collector favorite, as these are becoming more rare as time goes by.

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.
