French Style Brings Its Elegance To The French Armoire.

By: dJmadier Home | Home-and-Family | Home-Improvement


When it comes to the graceful things the French have no rivals. Take the examples of fashion, interior design or furniture style; they have that special flair that makes everything they touch desirable and glamorous. The French Armoire is again such a wonderful creation of the French.

French goods have always been elegant, forward thinking and lavish, and the French Armoire is no exception. If women have always wanted to wear the most beautiful clothes from the best French designers, now there is a craze for furnishing our homes with glamorous French Armoires, chests and accent tables. In a way it's like extending the fashion trends into our homes. If you want to wear the most elegant ensemble, then why not dress your bedroom accordingly?

A smart and eclectic mix of different French style armoires, chests and tables will turn your house into a stylish and comfortable home. The French Armoire lets you create the perfect reading corner with a gorgeous Louis XV armchair, or turn your bedroom into a boudoir with a delightful French Armoire and a Rococo style bed.

The craze for French Armoires comes from Paris, in the 17th century under Louis XIV - "le Roi Soleil" - who ruled from 1643 to 1715, the longest reign of any European monarch. The reign of the French king Louis XIV commences what experts would call the start of 'elegant' furniture design in France. French furniture gradually became refined in design, with a lot of emphasis on flowing, symmetrical design. Louis XIV saw the birth of Baroque style. The Versailles Palace was decorated in a strong, dramatic and exuberant style showing the king's strong leadership in a period of war and colonial empire building. The French classical Baroque style was grand and impressive, which became a symbol of the king's power.

The French aristocracy became obsessed with interior design, beauty, decadent living and French Armoires became desirable, and highly sought after ever since.
