Full Bloom Cottage: White Linen Settee for a White Wednesday

Seems like the days are flying by, Wednesday is here again! In the midst of my chaos, I have been running a muck, trying to finish refurbishing our antiques. We are pleased to announce that Full Bloom Cottage will be joining VandM.com next tuesday. We will be offering some of our finest antiques, and vintage finds. I have some really exquisite pieces, from French settees, to rose carved armoires. Here is a sneak peak at our inventory....

These Louis XVI Carved Settees are c1850s with the original faded gold gilding, red bole showing through. Tapered, fluted legs, "en asperge". Upholstered in the thickest quality Belgian linen available in oyster white, finished with a double welt.

Our New York Times Chronicles from the 1920-1940s, limited quantities available

Antique Louis XV carved armchair upholstered in a French Homespun linen Grain Sack with monogram.

Large oversized bolster pillows, perfect for the sofa or the bed...

Original faded chippy white capitols with peeling paint, perfectly crusty. These are no reproductions....

Thanks for taking a sneak peak at our upcoming inventory.

Happy White Wednesday.

"I found the fabulous Full Bloom Cottage a few months back and fell completely in love with Loretta's beautiful furnishings and sumptuous linens. Her vintage European grain sack bolsters are by far a favorite of mine. Full Bloom Cottage's products are of the highest quality and will never disappoint. Loretta's use of vintage linens, chandeliers and exquisite vintage furnishings and accessories blend together to create a warm and relaxing home full of definite beauty. I am extremely blessed to have some of her lovely pieces in my own home." -Melinda Barrowcliff-Reyes of Alabaster Rose Designs

" I have bought several gorgeous pieces of furniture from Loretta, I would have to say she has helped furnish three quarters of my home! If I'm asked what would be my favorite piece I wouldn't be able to choose. The armoire is just incredible, the detailing on it is so unique, the chandelier in my dining room is to die for! My armiore in my bedroom is just perfect, I love waking to it every morning. Not to mention all the other pieces! I'm always anticipating what she's going to have next, and what new piece of furniture that I will be adding to my home!" Rebecca -A French Home in NY

Thanks for sharing and good luck.
