FURNITURE SOLD
Telephone furniture
Angelin
Angelin (or Angelino) is a first name of Italian origin. Angelin tends to have a passionate character. He is determined and daring. Sometimes easily irritated, he is reliable and loyal. This description fits well with its owner, Angelina, a young girl with character as they say! She wanted a bedside table with a seat for her teenage bedroom. And she found just the thing! An old piece of telephone furniture, refurbished in the colours of her bedroom. It was sitting in a cellar in Solliès-ville, a small town in the Var department. The seat has also been completely redone (inside and out) in a romantic old pink velvet. The cushion has removable covers.
Bureau
Victorin
From the Latin Victor means ‘winner’. It won the heart of someone who adopted it to brighten up her home. This lovely desk was picked up from someone who moved from Alsace to be with her family in the centre of the Var. It had been sleeping in a nook and cranny, just waiting to express its softness.
Small furniture
Eugénie
This pretty name comes from the Greek eugenios, meaning ‘well-born’. Eugénie is bold. This is certainly the case with this little piece of entrance or occasional furniture that has found a home in Jacques' home. Eugénie had been sleeping in a garage in Hyères and its former owner is delighted that it has found a second life. It was accompanied by its little box of secrets.
Art Deco chest of drawers
Aglaë
This is Aglaë, a name of Greek origin. It's close to “aglaïa”, which means “beauty”. Isn't she a beauty? It was made of chestnut veneer, which was badly damaged. A lot of work, and here's the result! This 1920s art-deco dressing table comes from the Salins district of Hyères. I picked it up from its owner's great-granddaughter. It was a wedding present. Its rounded forms make it majestic. It comes with its matching box.
Chest of 3 drawers
Yvette
Meet Yvette. This little chest of drawers belonged to a Yvette from Le Lavandou and I thought this old name was very pretty. Yvette comes from the Celtic ‘yv’ meaning ‘yew, shrub’. It exudes a feeling of strength, balance and serenity that is reassuring. In the end, it's perfect for her! Its chequered top reflects the strength of solid oak.
Little furniture
Rémi
This piece of occasional furniture has found its niche. Its originality? The drawer and shelf are discreetly placed to one side... You can put a book at the end of the sofa, or a cup of tea or coffee next to your bed in the morning. Its legs are protected by attractive brass rings. It has been sanded, protected by a hard bottom and a checker. It used to sit at the back of a fisherman's hut in La Seyne sur Mer. Here he is in daylight, and what a sweetheart he is. He's handsome and helpful. And yes, that's Rémi. It's made of solid cherry wood, with decorations in wax and natural burnt umber pigment. It has been protected with a varnish.
Small furniture

It comes with a matching handkerchief box.

Furniture
Félix
Meet Félix, a Latin name meaning lucky, happy. Will he have the chance to make someone happy? He was found in Carqueiranne, a small seaside town in the Var department. It had been used as a TV cabinet and had large holes in the back. To revive it, we had to put some reinforcing wooden plates on the back, giving it back its original appearance. The ironwork is original. They have been cleaned to give them an aged metal look. Félix can be used to store crockery, linen, books or simply homemade jam.

Small art deco furniture
Theophile
This is Théophile, from the Greek theos meaning ‘God’ and philien meaning ‘to love’. A small two-door, one-drawer art-deco piece of furniture from Bandol, it used to sit in a corner of the dining room at the end of the chaise longue. Adorned with its flowers and black marble plaque, it is beautifully decorated in black on the inside and back to show off all its magnificence. The sinuous grain of the wood gives it both a solid and soft appearance. To evoke the Roaring Twenties, gold ornaments have been discreetly placed in the drawer and the gold handles evoke the spirit of the era.

Chest
Joseph
50s/60s chest Let me introduce you to Joseph. He slept in a room on the top floor of a village house in Valletta under a ladder. It was waiting to be discovered and brought up to date. Initially, it had a wicker decoration on its facade but time and use made it necessary to remove it. The canework placed instead suits it perfectly. A reminder of canework on the stone-colored top gives it a friendly look. Apart from this change, Joseph has retained all of its original elements including its background and back. The compass feet are also original. Discreet, Joseph will be careful with what you entrust to him because he is very attached to order.

Philémon
Le prénom Philémon est inspiré des termes grecs philein et monos se traduisant par « aimer » et « seul ». Par extension, ce prénom est rattaché au sens de « ami unique ». Il peut également signifier « qui aime la lune » dans une autre interprétation. Prénom qui sied bien à ce chevet art-déco unique de la fin des années 20.
Il provient de la ressourcerie de Brignoles en centre var, où il siégeait dans un coin, tout seul, mais unique.

Buffet 2 portes
Voici Firmin, prénom du début du siècle dernier, comme ce joli deux portes. Ce prénom lui va à ravir, car les Firmin sont solides dans leurs convictions. Firmin est convaincu qu'il trouvera sa nouvelle famille. Il a passé sa vie dans une maison du Revest, quartier à l'ouest de Toulon. Il faisait partie d'un vide maison. Siégeant au fonds de la remise d'une maison des années 1900, je l'ai aperçu et il m'a tout de suite plu. Ses jolies fleurs et son panier fleuri évoque le printemps. Nous y sommes bientôt d'ailleurs ! Agrémenté de fleurs sur ses façades, il est joliment vêtu de blanc. Sa particularité ? Il peut être disposé en comptoir pour séparer une pièce car son dos peut s'exposer.
