  • Notes from Sylvie:

    You can see tiny flecks of white paint on some parts of the wicker, probably from being too near when the farmhouse was being re-painted.

We stumbled upon this delightful mini wicker stool tucked away under a table at a brocante (flea market). Its woven seat immediately reminding us of the iconic mid-century Audoux Minet style. We fell in love with its handcrafted look and natural materials. We can picture this piece being used as a stool for a small child back in the day or a foot rest next to a beloved reading chair in the corner of a farmhouse.

Avignon, a city steeped in history and has long been a jewel of Provence. Known as the seat of the Papacy during the 14th century, Avignon became a center of power and culture, leaving behind a legacy of stunning architecture, art, and craftsmanship. The city’s rich history is palpable in every stone of its ancient streets, where the past and present blend seamlessly.

The surrounding countryside, with its rolling vineyards, lavender fields, and quaint villages, has been a source of inspiration for artists and artisans alike. It is here, amidst the serene beauty of Provence, that our latest collection was unearthed.

From intricately carved stools to delicately crafted ceramics, each piece in this collection reflects the artistry and tradition of Avignon and its surroundings. Whether it’s a piece discovered in a centuries-old farmhouse or a find from a grand Provençal brocante, these items carry with them the spirit of Avignon.
