The Ladies in Waiting...

These petite bergeres are the sweetest pieces I've ever had at my store. Born in 19th century France, these pair of walnut beauties landed in my care, sorely tattered and torn. My master crafstman and upholsterer went to work..... I had a vision.....

Carefully restored.... piece by piece.... french tack by french tack.... nothing but the softest, most beautiful belgian linen would do..... and soft, down-wrapped cushions to sink in....

The attention to detail is beyond words......

Part of my newly restored pieces at disegno Karina Gentinetta on 1stdibs.

And before I sign off to start working on the million things I have to cook for our Thanksgiving dinner, I just wanted to thank the crew at 1sdibs for these wonderful photos of my featured items on 1stdibs this week.
