Festin Coquin Pottery – As Seen On TV


Nearly a year ago we were approached by the poeple from the ITV show 60 Minute Makeover and asked if we’d like to supply a selection of Festin Coquin pottery for a forthcoming show. Apparently the designer – John Amabile – was creating a provencal style kitchen, and was really keen to dress the room with a selection of Festin Coquin plates, bowls and dishes.

The shoot took place last summer and, after a long wait, the episode featuring our pottery is finally on TV next Monday 21st May at 2.00 pm on ITV1. We’ve no idea how the pottery has been used or styled, so we’ll certainly be watching with interest! See our full range in the pottery & glassware  section of the website.

New Provencal Table Linen Online


We’ve found a fabulous new supplier of authentic provencal table linen – Indiennes de Nimes – and the new products are now online. We’ve a range of rectangular tablecloths and quilted bread baskets in 3 gorgeous designs and 4 glorious colours. The cotton is beautifully fine and the patterns are wonderfully intricate – they really showcase the best of traditional provencal designs. Indiennes de Nimes recreate the original patterns that were designed in the 17th century when these typical fabrics – called “indiennes” were first produced in Provence. The range from Indiennes de Nimes is more expensive than our other French linen, but the quality is truly excellent. Tablecloths are £93.50 and bread baskets £14.50.

Pretty Summer Tablecloths from Provence


Despite the recent wet weather, summer will soon be here and it’s always nice to reflect sunny days and warmer temperatures by rejuvenating your home with colourful accessories. And a lovely cotton tablecloth in bright colours can transform a kitchen or dining room. At Boutique Provençale we have a wide range of cotton tablecloths that will fit the bill. Round and rectangular, coated and uncoated, they’re sure to bring a touch of southern French style to your home.

If you’re looking for a tablecloth that’s not only pretty but practical too, you don’t need to look any further than our range of coated tablecloths. 100% cotton, they’re coated with a Teflon coating which protects the fabric and means any spillages can be wiped off easily – making them ideal for kitchen or garden tables. And because the tablecloths are coated cotton, they drape properly – unlike plastified tablecloths that often stick out at an awkward angle from the table.

Below is a selection from our range of rectangular coated tablecloths – all are 250cm long – large enough for up to a 6′ table.

        

All the circular tablecloths in our range are coated. Some have an “allover” pattern where the pattern simply repeats – these are 160cm in diameter. Others have a design where there is a central focus to the pattern – these are larger at 180cm in diameter.

        

If you’re looking for rectangular tablecloths that are uncoated, we do have a number of designs, again all in 100% cotton. Some of these have an attractive border, others have an “allover” design. These tablecloths measure 250cm long – large enough for up to a 6′ table.

         

If you see a design you like but are looking for something smaller or larger, do contact us as we may be able to organise a special order for you. View our full range in the tablecloths section  of the website. Happy browsing!

Festin Coquin Dinner Plates Back in Stock


We’re pleased to say that we’ve just received a delivery from Festin Coquin, and we’ve been able to replenish our stocks of their fabulous dinner plates. If you’re keen to add to your collection of Festin Coquin tableware with the 2011/2012 designs, we’d urge you to buy now, as from now on we won’t be able to get hold of new stock in these pretty patterns. Festin Coquin are preparing the 2012/13 collection (available towards the end of July), and the way they work is that they don’t produce any more pottery in the previous year’s designs once they’re in production for the next year’s designs. So once we’ve run out of stock, that’s it! There are 7 different patterns in stock. Left to right Sophie, Adele and Lucie….

     

Babette, Eloise and Sandrine….

     

And last but not least, the Camille pattern with its more muted colours….
