Publisher's Synopsis
A new look is emerging in France's apartments as well as its imposing chateaux and country manors. Along with signature pieces of national identity- such as finely crafted wood pieces, splendid mirrors, and grandm+¿re's well cared for linens-European mid-century modern furnishings also adorn settings in this age of merging sensibilities. Amid abstract works of art hanging on walls, painted furniture mingles easily with budgetfriendly finds from assorted cultures, such as wool rugs and hand-embroidered linens from India, and pottery, artisan-made pillows, throws and vintage textiles from remote markets in Morocco.
