French Antiques and Flea Market Finds

This house, located in a small village only an hour away from the centre of Paris, used to be a barn and was restored and transformed by Monique, owner of Pigwidgeon, a decorating company. She lives here with her husband and two sons. Every room is brimming with beautiful 18th century antiques and flea market finds. French an whimsical through and through.

Restored 1860 House

Built in 1860, this home went from a hotel to a nursing home in the 60s and has now been restored by Clarisse and Arnaud de Saint-Martin, both antique dealers and interior designer enthusiasts. Definitely French in style, it is brimming with interesting pieces: from Medici vases and Louis XV chairs to plenty of flea market finds.

Cottage in Cape Ferret

A retired couple, wanting to escape the hectic life in Bordeaux, moved to this colonial style house in Cape Ferret, a headland located at the south end of the department of Gironde, in France. The interiors are a mixture of French and New England cottage styles. So relaxing and dreamy.

Family Castle in France

Aurélien Deleuze, his wife Pascale and teenage sons Augustin and Victor live in this stunning castle located outside the small village of Bugnein in France. Built around 1700 by an abbot who was knighted by Louis XIV, it has survived the centuries almost intact. Unique period pieces and original French furniture takes us back in time as we go from room to room.
