Summary

"French Style with Vintage Finds features ten charming homes inspired by the beauty and romance of France, each with their own distinctive style and pieces that evoke a Gallic ambience. Louis XVI chairs in just the right place, an aged clock, or a distressed mirror above a table made from salvage ironwork can bring the history and splendor of France to your home. As the world's top tourist destination, there are many antique markets and brocantes in France specializing in everything home and garden just waiting to be explored. They are a way of life for the French. These beautiful villages and markets are captured in full color photography and appear alongside commentary from the experts. From architectural salvage and antique canvasses to kitchen jars and jewelry, this book will satisfy the passions of those seeking a part of this timeless culture."--Amazon.
