      Amaury's mother went to an upholstery class with Stephanie when Stephanie was a teenager. Amaury's mother builds sofas. Stephanie showed Philip how to repair a sofa. Philip wants to build a sofa and a chair from the frame stage. ❤ Philip has spoken of this in the past.

      The colorful paintings on either side of that lovely terracotta bust remind me of that playful and slightly naughty painting "The Swing" by Jean-Honoré Fragonard ...that depict the lady swinging high under a tree exposing her voluminous skirts and underskirts and stockings ...as she flings one of her slippers with abandon into the air. Just below her lying incongruously on the ground is a young dandy gazing rapturously at her dainty (unshod) foot and ankles, and into the enticingly shadowy void beneath her billowing gown and undergarments. Oh my! How 'French' can you get (?) ...how perfect these painting would be on either side of your exquisite terracotta, Stephanie, in your French salon!! 🩰⚜💃

    The moment you showed that terracotta bust, I thought that if it was at all affordable, you had to get it for the grand salon. Such perfect pieces seldom come along. The sofa frame is glorious, and I suspect that Philip will be very busy bringing it back to life. One more talent to add to his ever-growing skill set. This was a delightful episode!

    Fabulous antiques, I thought Stephanie might have bought the boxed gold and white porcelain for Phillip for Christmas….but you can’t hide porcelain from him! The beautiful scroll desk which had toy trains on reminded me of my Grandfather’s desk it was a large 1930’s roll top desk with drawers. He was a building Society Manager from 1930 until he retired in 1965 but still did consulting work for them nearly up until his death aged 91. I can still smell the pungent smell of the wood and the ink and the ledgers he had.

    EVERYONE, ESPECIALLY Stephanie…. I sat viewing this incredible vlog at times in tears. Stephanie you will never know how the visits, experiences, knowledge you share brings light into my life. The antiquing was as though you were bringing me into a candy store. I was afraid you might leave without the lovely boxed pieces, simply exquisite, I’m SO glad you took them home. Looking left or right in either direction there were simply BEAUTIFUL articles to admire and even covet! It was when you entered the museum and we witnessed the chapel that I felt tears welling up. I am a gardener on a minute (very small) scale. I have always cherished the earth and it’s bounties. To see the sculptures depicting trees of life coming from the body of the gentleman reclining (Joseph I think you said) brought tears to my eyes. EVERYTHING about this wonderful visit lifted my heart which has been mighty low here in the states. THANK YOU. THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH. 🤗💕😘From New England

I love it when Vivienne is with you, she's such a sweetie and I loved that she bought Philip that little mouse to put on the Christmas tree. Thank you for taking us on a really fun expedition today. The chateau you're staying in is truly beautiful and it was so wonderful to see all my favourite people from chateaus that I follow on RUclips there too, what a treat.

    Enjoyed the vlog very much. Stephenie, you have the wonderful knowledge and skill of describing the beautiful objects as you walk through the brocante and museum. 😊
