Antique finds in Provence, the soul of an 1780 house

In Lorgues, in the heart of the green Provence, every piece of furniture, every ceramic and every curiosity was sourced across the Var's flea markets — and can be taken home over a meal.

The art of hunting

A décor entirely thrifted, from the Var to elsewhere

Nothing here comes from a catalogue. The furniture, the tableware and the countless little things that dress the house first lived elsewhere: a village flea market, a Provençal attic, a Sunday car-boot sale.

We hunt for the love of the mismatched and the patina — objects that already carry a story and begin a new one with us, just minutes from Draguignan.

Thrifted, never new.

To explore

The heart of the hunt is our gallery & antiques

Our pillar page gathers it all: the artworks in the lounge, the open-air antiques in the garden and the pieces to take home. Step inside, then wander through the rest of the house.

And to continue your visit:

What we unearth

Three families of finds

01

Characterful furniture

Chests of drawers, farm tables, rush-seat chairs and travel trunks: pieces that have already lived and are back in service, at the table and in the lounge.

02

Ceramics & tableware

Patterned plates, jugs and mismatched earthenware, sourced from Provence's flea markets — often it's on these that you're served.

03

Curiosities & keepsakes

Frames, lamps, objects brought back from elsewhere: the little finds that tell of a journey and give the house its soul.

For sale directly

Fallen for something? Take it home

The armchair you liked, the lamp on the sideboard, the stack of old plates: almost everything you see can follow you home.

Just ask the team — prices are gentle and the sale is made directly, with no middleman. A new find will take its place, and the house will keep reinventing itself.

For sale, right here.

Provence spirit

Treasure hunting, a tradition right from here

In Provence, hunting for treasures is almost a way of life: Sunday markets, village flea markets, car-boot sales in the shade of the plane trees. You take your time, you chat, you leave with an object and a story. That's the spirit we wanted to bring into the house.

Good to know

Your questions about our antique finds

Are the antique finds really for sale?

Yes, almost everything you see in the house can be bought: furniture, tableware, lamps and curiosities. Simply ask the team during your visit.

Where do you find these objects?

Across the flea markets, car-boot sales and markets of Provence and the Var. Every piece is hand-picked, chosen for its patina and its story — never bought new.

Do I need to book to come and see the antiques?

The hunt is discovered over a meal, in the lounge-gallery and in the garden. Booking your table is the easiest way: you wander before or after lunch.

Where is the house?

At 12 avenue Allongue, in Lorgues (83510), in the heart of the green Provence — about fifteen minutes from Draguignan, Les Arcs-sur-Argens and Vidauban.

Can I exhibit or drop off pieces to sell?

Artists and antique dealers are welcome. Speak to the team or write to us: the house loves to welcome new finds.
