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 Bergere sofa is a French style of upholstered settee featuring an exposed wooden frame, enclosed sides, woven cane or upholstered panels, and deep loose seat cushions.

Traditional Bergere sofas are constructed using solid hardwoods such as walnut, beech, or mahogany, fitted with hand-woven cane paneling, and filled with feather or horsehair cushions.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved framework details, hand-woven mesh cane with organic variations, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, and natural wear patterns along touch points.

Integrate a Bergere sofa into a modern room by surrounding it with clean-lined contemporary tables, neutral linen accents, and minimalist lighting to highlight its intricate woodcraft.

Keep the wood and cane away from direct heat sources to avoid brittleness, dust the woven panels with a soft brush, and vacuum cushions using an upholstery attachment.
