The retail business tradition is to order new merchandise in January-February, but we decided to buck tradition by ordering early. After all, we live in Southern California, where it’s spring year-round, and having an online store blurs the line of seasonality a bit as well. Here’s a sampler of new designs…

Beauville Literary Rooster, block printed on cotton and linen

Beauville Red Poppies, block printed on cotton and linen

Garnier Thiebaut Aubergines (Eggplants), jacquard woven cotton

Garnier Thiebaut Figues (Figs), jacquard woven cotton

Our Sud & Co Corsica pottery is almost sold out. We only have two large round platters left of the Corsica pattern. If you are a collector of Sud and Co Corsica, these pieces are for you! They are gigantic, measuring 19.5″ in diameter. One platter has a few minor blemishes on the underside that cannot be seen during normal usage, and is marked down accordingly. The other platter is perfect. Visit I Dream of France for more information.
