Bonjour Mes Amis! And welcome to Summer!

Now is the time to celebrate the blue skies and warm breezy afternoon and move plein air! For me, I live on my back porch during the warm months! Looking out at my jarden, serenaded by the musical birds.

What does summer look like in your life? We have collected some delightful things at the last market, to add to our celebration. Take bright vintage canvas stripes for added color to your jarden or beach house!

Now add one of our colorful Swedish wood and metal folding tables! Perfect for these little glass carriers, or tiny glass cloches from France to cover the perfect French pastry or Frommage!

A Vintage French Bistro Bucket for your favorite Champagne! And bring along the pets too!

Use only hand-painted metal trays with vintage French Striped torchons, for generous napkins!

Invite some friends!

Et Voila! Your summer is ready!!! Et toutes choses Francais!
Enjoy mes amis!

Merci! Lee and Alix

Our Latest Antique Lighting Line- Created Just for your Chateau!

Growing up as an only child, I had lots of time to play and create.

Decades later, my Mother remarked to a friend that I was " always making something out of

nothing....change a little or change a lot, but new object was always being tranferred into something totally different!".

Well, today, that theory is still into play....but never

more beautifully!

..................I am happy to introduce my new line of lamps and chandeliers make from vintage and antique objet d'art from Europe!

With the help of my genius lamp maker, I've taken 18th century Italian gilt Fragments, vintage metal and brass ornaments and the unexpected everyday antique object and reshaped, painted, or molded it into a fabulous one -of -a -kind lighting fixture!

All of these lighting pieces can be viewed on the Chateau website. Unfortunately, some are already sold and will never be re-created again! But never fear, I keep my Lamp Genie busy creating more works of art for your lighting needs!

Need something special for your Chateau? Just ask!

Shipments arrive from France, England & Belgium!!!

Some of our New Arrivals - Just added to our Chateau Website!

Paris and the South of France Markets!

***CONTAINER ARRIVING ATLANTA OCTOBER 20!!!***

Bonjour Mes Amis!
I have just returned from over a glorious week of buying antiques in Paris and in the south of France! The weather was beautiful, the food wonderful ( I even ate kangaroo) and the markets were packed with treasures to bring home to you!

Over the next few days I will be listing on the website some of the treasures that I was able to bring home in my suitcases. The rest will be shipped back. Shipments from my Paris dealers will start arriving as soon as next month, while the rest will be shipped in by the first of November.

I wanted to share with you some of the sights from the beautiful markets that we went to. And some of the lovely French and Italian people that we met! So enjoy these lovely memories with me!

Merci! Lee
