What you should know about Ammies Meubles dIntérieur
Our home accessories include exquisite quality Toile de Jouy Quilts, a variety of Table Linen and Bath Linen and not to forget that we are the leading stockist in the Tetsubin Teapot - the most loved piece of Tea Art in France!. We stock a wide variety of French Furniture and exclusive French Home Accessories from leading French Brands. Our styles range from the Louis XIII Period, Lounge Chairs, Dining Tables and Dining Chairs, Commodes and Consoles, Beds and Bedside Tables, Neo Classical Period through to the Louis Phillippe Period. Our finishes also include the very popular Country effect creating a real Provençal touch to your home.You will find anything from Armoires, the Rococo Period, the French Régence Period, Library Desks and much more.
Our showroom is frequently updated with our favourite accessory finds. Several years before the accession to the French throne of Louis XVI, we meet what is almost the exact opposite of the Rococo furniture of the preceding Louis XV age. Emphasis on straight lines and right angles, geometric forms, seriousness, logical design, and a sharp move away from the curves of the Rococo. Furniture becomes restrained in its form and decoration, with much use of fluted columns, carved friezes, oak and laurel leaf, wreaths, the Greek band, and other various neo classical attempts to imitate the furniture and architecture of the Romans and Greeks. Grey and White marble on natural woods that was painted grey or white, embellished with Gold Leaf was popular. During the reign of Louis Philippe, the color, grain, and quality of the wood became more a focus of design. Wood was painted in black, decorated with gilt with painted decoration, and sometimes veneered. Mahogany and palissandre were still employed while ebony and other darkened wood such as beech and pear tree came into use. Flood, sycamore, wild cherry, magnifying glass of elm, maple, root of if reddish, thuya were also common woods of the age. Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI are more popular in reproductions and adaptations have been placed on the market in increasing numbers.
