A House of Bourbon Holiday

In between the Holiday Tour of our home, {more coming tomorrow!} I was thrilled to be featured by Saxon Henry on her site productrazzi. Honored. Saxon created Productrazzi to share noteworthy historical design, trends in the design and architecture fields, and new product releases. Saxon wrote a stunning post about what gifts from FrenchGardenHouse Queen Marie Antoinette might love for the holidays. You can see if her taste is similar to yours, "the selection of gifts reflect a hint of that je ne sais quoi that made Marie Antoinette and her courtiers so memorable." Go to A HOUSE OF BOURBON HOLIDAY. Holidays in the House of Bourbon must have been quite grand. Saxon is going to Paris in January to visit the French home decor and gift show, and to tour the Bernadaud porcelain factory in Limoges, France. Oh! How I wish I was going with her, don't you? I am sure that she will share in photographs and her engaging writing style all about the visit, so be sure to check back on her blog later in January to see all that is French, luxury, quality and porcelain!

In the words of Saxon Henry, "reach back to a time when the House of Bourbon was lauded for luxurious accouterments" and read her wonderful and informative post about Dining in History and Marie Antoinette.
