The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A bonnetiere is a traditional French single-door armoire originally designed in rural regions to store bonnets, hats, and folded household linens. Characterised by its tall, narrow proportions, this style of freestanding cabinet features panelled woodwork and robust frame construction.

Traditional French armoires were crafted from regional solid hardwoods such as oak, fruitwood, and walnut, assembled using traditional mortise and tenon joinery. Exterior fittings typically featured hand-forged wrought iron hinges, locks, and decorative key escutcheons.

Authentic period examples feature wooden pegged joinery, hand-planed backboards, and hand-wrought ironmongery. The moulding and carved panels follow regional French provincial proportions, showing natural variation and wear consistent with age.

A narrow single-door armoire functions effectively as a hallway coat robe, a bedroom linen press, or additional kitchen pantry storage. Placing the piece within an alcove provides vertical height while the natural pale timber tone complements neutral contemporary palettes.

Maintain timber surfaces by dusting regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the cabinet away from direct heat sources and radiator vents to prevent wood shrinkage and split fielded panels.
