A Cote d’Azur Holiday, Part 1

God put his glory on display when he created France. Some have described it as a magical place. From the haunting beauty of Paris to the bucolic charm of its ancient medieval villages, he gets the praise and we get the pleasure.

My husband and I recently returned from touring the South of France buying antiques. We spent several days in Carnon, a quiet seaside village on the Cote d’Azur. Our hotel was poised on a marina in the Languedoc region, west of better known Provence. From our window, we had a lovely view of the pool, marina and could just glimpse the Mediterranean Sea beyond. The location was perfect with plenty of small restaurants, bistros and a broad boardwalk for strolling. The broad expanse of beach and sparkling sea beckoned us for afternoon walks after a glace at an open air cafe. Some days we ordered a carafe of rose, the light fruity pink wine of the region - such were our decisions and delights after a hectic day of buying.

ALL SALES FINAL

Because our inventory is antique and vintage, all sales are final upon purchase. Our antiques, art and other items have the character of their age which may include wear consistent with age and use and or imperfections that are intrinsic to their history. Please thoroughly review our inventory, review the product descriptions, photographs and ask questions before purchasing. We strive to offer quality items and appreciate your business. Thank you, Deborah Jensen, Owner, Faded Rose Antiques.
