This is what my dreams are made of when I’m dreaming in French style. Herringbone floors, duck-egg blues and sumptuous silks, damasks and velvets. Mirrors, classic lamps, peonies and a blue chinoiserie chest. Panelled walls, high high ceilings and tall windows with shutters. And of course, a stunning chandelier. So beautiful!

Hi Naomi, I have a French antique import and retail business in Queenscliff. We sell only genuine French furniture and accessories and go to France every 10 months and bring back a container load of gorgeous stock. We do consignment shopping for customers for specific requests as well as bringing back our usual fare. Let me know if there’s anything I may be able to source for you. Great blogsite.
