Country Furniture became popular with the hugely popular Shabby Chic concept, designers and homeowners alike draped sofas with sheets and decorated dressers with ornaments whimsically recreating romantic rooms of times gone by. As with anything cutting edge it finally becomes mainstream and we can now find various renditions in most of the big box stores, forcing interior designers and decorators to find something new.
Enter the new look of 'French Country Furniture', it certainly seems to be the style 'du jour', and it's certainly not Shabby at all. Big and bold high quality elegant furnishings with a back drop of earth tones from warm grays to terracotta. The look is clean and functional with no trace of whimsy, today it is about form and utility.
Pedestal Bed Frame
The key element for the dining room has to be the oversized dining tables that we have seen in finishes ranging from deep Old World wood to rustic raw Salvage, with Trestle or Pedestal bases and plank tops. Dining chair options are considerable, ranging from Antique hand studded leather to the finer details of the classic Parisian Abre style canvas back French country chairs. Ornamentation is typically grand with complementary artwork ranging from the classical French Impressionists to Cubism.
Living areas should be anchored by strong heavy elements, distressed Avignon style wall cabinets, French country coffee tables and antique leather club sofas and chairs, think Gentleman's private club, huge cigars and fine Cognac, soft lighting provided by oversized rustic chandeliers. During a recent trip to Macon France we picked up a huge wine barrel chandelier which is actually made from aged wine barrel staves and it has to be quintessential light fixture of the French country interior that would become the focus of any living room project.
With the new look of French country furniture focusing around oversized high quality distressed pieces it means price wise it's not for the faint of heart, on the up side it means it's exclusive, just what the decorators are looking for.
