Provencal style, as the name suggests, had its beginnings in Provence, i.e. a land located in south-eastern France.

Provencal style furniture

Provencal -style interior furniture must be made of wood without a doubt. Of course, they cannot miss numerous decorations and carving, which will give them elegance and class. So let's not choose dressers, shelves, tables or chairs that will have a simple block. Interestingly, the perfect furniture, maintained in this style, we can often find on the so -called Flea fairs and antique shops, which even "bend" from furniture with "positive" signs of old age.

The color of such furniture is as important as the material and decorations. The Provencal style loves bright colors and this should also be furniture. However, if we find beautiful but dark elements, then no problem will be painted in white or pastel color. Apart from the wardrobe, table and chairs, remember about stylish dressers, sideboards and smaller tables.

Finally, we cannot fail to mention comfortable sofas that can be successfully found in the living room, thus encouraging to relax and rest. Ideally, if such a couch is also accompanied by comfortable and stylish armchairs and footrests. As with furniture, such a rest should have a bright color that we can revive by using colorful bedspreads and pillows.
