Are you looking for antique French armchairs? We have classic Provincial options available with us!

Posted on March 01, 2019

Often when we read about the history of French Antiques, it is more about the luxurious pieces of furniture created to suit the royals and aristocrats. But there is a specific style of furniture called French provincial style that was designed for everyday use and had a simpler vibe.

French Provincial furniture styles took inspiration from the Louis XV and Louis XVI era in Versailles but were not as opulent and more humble appearance wise.

However, what was once considered simple now looks quite luxurious in contemporary homes. In spite of a humble look and appeal, you will be surprised to find that these decorative provincial furniture options look quite at home and luxurious in today’s contemporary homes.

While the original aristocratic styles might appear to be a little over the top in the contemporary home, the simple provincial country style furniture of the past will easily bring in the perfect amount of tradition and luxury, fitting in effortlessly in both formal and casual settings. So be it a luxurious hotel, a classic mansion or a focal point in a contemporary home, these are pieces of furniture pieces that could work for you.
