Antique French armoire top pelmet, fronton d'armoire. Original, old varnished mahogany finish re-presented with the addition of Frenchic authentic chalk paint, peinture du lait. Late 19th c.

This elegant recent arrival comes to us via a reliable French dealer based in Normandy. Although sourced in its original, dark mahogany state, its elegant hand-crafted carving has since been embellished with the addition of a more contemporary colour palette of grey and powder pink.

Emulating the buttermilk paints of the 18th c., and perhaps better known today as chalk paint, these eco-friendly water-based paints contain some 46% chalk. This chalky, matt, breathable finish, produced by Frenchic., considered perfect for ageing and distressing furniture.

19th c. frontons of this type are increasingly being transformed for the 21st c., adding a French chateau, architecturally sculpted look to spaces above doorways and windows. As demonstrated in the boutique hotel, Les Bois Flottais in Le Bois-Plage-en Re on Ile de Re. IMAGE 13.

And something we've alluded to by positioning a second fronton (available in a separate lacewing-provencal listing) over a pair of interior doors to give you an idea of it in situ. LAST IMAGE.
