This is the first cupboard Sylvie sourced, and certainly one of her favorites in the estate collection. Engraved with the year it was made, 1856, our jaw in still on the ground. The deep shelves invite you to display treasured ceramics, vintage cookbooks, or a rotating selection of seasonal flowers. Sylvie would tuck her collection of handmade pottery here, adding candles on the upper shelves for a soft glow that warms up the whole room.

Notes from Sylvie:

Like many antique wood pieces, this bench has evidence of previous wood worm holes and has been repaired in the past. It has cracks, patina and stains, but we think that only adds to its character.

In the heart of a sun-soaked French village, the early morning air hums with anticipation. The brocante is just beginning to stir, its stalls lined with an eclectic mix of treasures gathered from generations past. Sylvie finds herself weaving through narrow rows, where the earthy aroma of aged wood and the faint hint of lavender linger in the air.

As she strolls, she exchanges nods and smiles with the seasoned vendors who watch over their wares like guardians of history. Every table holds something captivating—hand-painted ceramics, tarnished silverware, stacks of well-loved books, and intricately carved furniture that speaks of another era. The charm lies in the imperfections: a slight crack in a glazed vase, the patina on a brass mirror, the weathered edges of a faded tapestry.

With each discovery, Sylvie curates a collection that embodies the soul of the art of antiquing. By afternoon, her arms are filled with treasures, each piece a window into another life, another time. A thought sparks as she gazes at her finds: What if I brought this feeling home? And so, the Sylvie Brocante was born—a collection designed to transport you to that sunlit village, where every item carries a piece of France’s soulful past, inviting you to experience it in your own space.
