Creating a Dreamy Sanctuary: Our Feature in Country Style Magazine

We’re thrilled to share our latest collaboration with Country Style Magazine, where our curated collection of French antiques was beautifully showcased in a feature on layered, textured bedroom decor.

This editorial highlights how timeless design and thoughtful styling can transform a bedroom into a true haven. Among the pieces featured were two standout favourites from our collection: a striking striped commode and a soft grey console table, both sourced from the heart of Provence.

These elegant, history-rich items are available for purchase either online or in person at the Ferris Wheel Gallery in Bowral. In this post, we’ll explore how luxurious textures, calming colour palettes, and artisanal touches can elevate your bedroom into a peaceful retreat.

From sumptuous linens to hand-crafted furniture, our French antiques bring warmth, character, and refined charm to any space. Join us as we dive into the art of creating a bedroom that soothes the senses and tells a story - one antique at a time. Let’s discover how to turn your sleep space into a sanctuary of style and serenity.
