  • Notes from Sylvie:

    Like many antique wood pieces has has evidence of previous wood worm holes. The piece has been repaired throughout the years and has minor splits and cracks in the wood. BUT it does come with its own key.

We discovered this charming oak corner cabinet in the antique markets of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, though it originally graced an old house in Aix. With its finely carved paneling and rich patina, it once held cherished keepsakes and household essentials, tucked neatly into a cozy corner of a Provençal home.

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.
